Holiday, sorry to hear about that. I'm surprised they didn't have this info during the selection process if its such a problem. But, the fact that you made it through is a testament you're now physically fit for the next space mission.
I did have a question about the timing between you doing the interview and then getting the bad news. It seems like its been about three months. Did you end up sitting at home all this time waiting for a class?
The reason I ask, I've been invited to be probed and humiliated but I can't sit around for months.
It's going to be a good year and as a 320 Captain, more opportunities will show themselves. I spent two years flying in China and if you have anything else, take it.
