UK MFT urgently needed.
Hi all,
Bit of background first. In April I had a retinal detachment to my right eye. Class 1 medical was suspended. I did my visual fields and have 5 missed spots on the very periphery of my right eye. None missed on my left or binocularly. CAA ophthalmologist said he would recommend reinstatement of my Class 1 with a multi crew restriction. Having sat on the paperwork for nearly 3 weeks, the CAA now want a Medical Flight Test as well. Does anybody know if this Flight Test has to be conducted on the type I'm rated (B744) or not. If not the CFI at my local flying school can do it, but I have'nt flown a SEP for nearly 25 years. If it is so does anybody know of an examiner and where I could get a sim on short notice, you see at the moment I'm unemployed having been made redundant in May and I have (or had if this doesn't work out) a job offer starting at the end of next week.
Any help appreciated.
