Well I want to have an operation because I want to do heavy sports in the future but I feel held back to doing it because of this Class 1 Medical test; if I have the operation I doubt I can pass the physical requirements (running) as I need three months to recover (which means I'll have to waste 1 year before starting my ATPL course) but if I don't have the operation I may be able to pass the test (well at the moment with my torn ligament I can run, jog and jump to a certain extent) if only they allow a torn ACT. Now here comes the question....what types of excercises will I need to do for the test and will they possibly prevent me from passing this test?
