Just got back from the Aviation House at Gatwick. I had booked for an Exercise ECG with consultation which cost £195. It is one heck of a work out if you do not exercise regularly! My legs were on their last knockings when I had to inform the AME to stop it. My heart rate got up to 182bpm on the 4th stage, when the AME had set me a target of 198bpm before the test started. However, I managed to last over 12 minutes which was more than satisfactory. Then I got the good news that I have passed the Class 2, and was well within the limits and got the certificate issued!
However, the AME then informed me that if I wish to undergo for a Class 1 in the future, the current condition (MVP) should not be a problem providing it doesn't deteriorate that badly. So all in all, great news and I can now look forward to some PPL lessons. Thank you all for your support in this thread and PMs, it is much appreciated
