I had Angioplasty and three stents just before Christmas.
A couple of weeks later I was invited for an aeros flight in an Extra.
Called the cardio - OK for +4G/-3G?
You'll be fine.
As a result of the original thread, I asked the cardio whether the same would be true if I was the pilot?
Not a chance. We don't care if you pass out as a passenger, but do care about who you would kill as a pilot.
An unequivocal no.
I should have asked if there was any hope of getting cleared after demonstrating a degree of fitness, because writing this has just shattered a dream of wnnng the Lottery and flying my own Mosquito.
