Collective Colour Vision Thread 3

[shgsaint]

Well I've finally taken the plunge and booked my Class 1 at Gatwick. After years (literally) of putting it off !!!

I have a couple of quick questions however:

1. Regarding the lantern test that I may have to do; will the lights be either green, red or white? What I mean is I know that the hue apparently changes so would they be gits and put on one green light above another green light below but have them in different hues? Trying to confuse me.... Or would it simply be; one light will be either red, green or white and the other light will be one of the other two left?

i.e. Top light red, thus bottom light will be either green or white.

2. If I do fail, (touch wood!) can I go to Switzerland and get a JAA class 1 over there? Would I have to declare that I failed over here and would it restrict me flying GB reg aircraft? Is a JAA class 1 as simple as that. Once you've got it, irrespective of in what country and after a few attempts you have it and it's job done?

I'm trying to go into it as prepared as possible!!

Many thanks,

SHG.
