Ah good - another own-goal.
Doc: It’s a good news / bad news type of result I’m afraid. Which would you like first?
Pilot: I’m tough, give it to me straight.
Doc: You have failed your Aircrew Medical due to your lacklustre and frankly disappointing level of fitness. Your lack of leadership has been entered into your medical records. Your flying pay will be cut in 12 months in accordance with current regulations.
Pilot: Christ Doc, don’t sugar-coat it or anything [Gulp!] What is the good news?
Doc: You passed your Class 1 medical with ease and I believe the PVR time equates to the ticking clock on your flying pay. Good luck with the airlines.
Pilot: Thanks Doc. Good luck to you with your imminent future on the new full-fat NHS GP contract.
Doc: Cheers mate, see you in civi-street.
