Flying & Smoking

Hey,

I am about to start my PPL training this fall, not having decided whether or not to go for a career in aviation just yet, I'd like to get a feel for it first.

As I passed my medical a couple of months ago I truthfully told the doc that I didn't smoke. Now however, I have realised that I'm rapidly sliding into a smoking problem.

Well I'm going to quit. But out of curiosity I'd like to know what the deal is when it comes to smoking pilots. Will you just fail your medical if you admit smoking or is it tolerated? Any limits? Anything?
