I remeber going down to the CAA for my class one and sailed through the medical apart from the colour blindness bit! i failed the ishihara plates test although i did pass them at the opticians and doctorspreviousley, then to nake matters worse i failed the H.W.L test first time round. The optician said that it can be sat a second time, and he bundled me into a dark and told me to keep my eyes shut until we were back in the darkened testing suite where i went through it all again, and the swine didny say anything for ages but im glad cos he just got up gave me a slip of paper said congrats and walked out!! i had passed.I collared him later on and thanked him , but also asked him about BA Medicals he said they use both tests but they like you to tell them if you failed the ishihara one so as not to waste time
