extrasystole (extra heart beat)
Hi there,
I am a dual FAA/JAA ATPL pliot.
I currently fly for a U.S carrier but consider switching to a EU company.
For a few years now I had this skipped beat or extra beat thing that never came up during a flight physical.
During my last JAR medical renewal it did show up and the lady doctor said I have something called extra-systole.
She ended up passing me but had to wait for a while till she could get a long enough ECG signal without it.
I feel I got lucky this time and that I might not be so lucky next time.
I know JAR requirements are more restrictive than FAA.
I do excersize, drink very little coffee and don't smoke.
Can one still hold a class one JAA medical with such a condition?
Thanks a bunch,
