Fi Flyer40,

I had my initial issue Class 1 medical approx a fortnight ago at Gatwick; and I have asthma. Mine is exceptionally well controlled, in that I only really use an inhaler now if I have a cold or am about to attempt strenuous exercise.

I spoke to the chaps / chapesses at Gatwick about it and fortunately my peak flow and spriometry tests were all inside acceptable limits. However they did give the impression that should they have been outside of them then there was more "things" they/I could do which would help me.

There is a helpful page on the CAA website here:
http://www.caa.co.uk/default.aspx?ca...=90&pageid=540

but if you have any questions feel free to PM me and I will answer what I know from my experience!

Best of luck.


Craig.
