Asthma
Hello all,

Is Asthma a problem for pilots??

I have mild asthma, never had an asthma attack or been hospitalised. Civil aviation have asked for a spirometry reading and status from a gp after passing the class 2 medical. Is this something to be concerned about considering I can only blow 350 on the peak flow and have a return reading of a moderate obstruction from the spirometry reading?
