Hi 7E7,

Well, IMHO and in the opinion of a lot of medical professionals that I have scene it has been deduced that I should not have a problem with a TC Class 1medical. It is really down to how you present the information and as I have an FAA Class 1, the requirements of TC mirror that of the FAA.

I have been giving this some thought and I may renew my FAA Medical and obtain a TC one also. The only issue is deciding on which license to do, the FAA or the Transport Canada. There are arguments that the TC license does not open up many opportunities compared to the FAA License?

I don't know how true this is but it would certainly help if i get Canadian PR then I will automatically become entitled to work in Canada and I suppose I could convert the Canadian to an FAA if need be?

Would you suggest doing my PPL as Canadian or FAA? Which would open up many opportunities? If it means I get a chance in corporates too would FAA or TC be better?

Cheers
