Hypothyroidism and a career in flying....
Hi all
As the title suggests, just wondering if there are any folks out there that have etched out a career in flying (big jets) whilst being blessed with hypothyroidism?
To be honest I have a career in flying at the moment (in its infancy) and don't have any problems with attaining a class one medical, however I would one day love to fly one of the big shiny jets but as my country doesn't have many options for me to fly big ol' shiny I'd have to look overseas for the opportunity.
I do understand that all countries and companies have different medical requirements but do you think any of the major carriers would have a problem with this disorder? My DAME and GP both suggest it should not be an issue.
So any pilots had experience with this??
