AFIK a copy of the form is returned to the CAA.

The original post related to questions being asked on the form which were not relevant to the medical assessment.

Don't know about the rest of you but I don't normally think it necessary to take my log book to a medical examination. Therefore in my case the answers to hours flown are guesswork.

As I have said, I have no objection to providing the information providing that it is being collected and used sensibly.

AME's are big boys, they don't need a questionnaire in order to start a conversation, hence my suggestion that tacpot's view that "These questions give the AME the background information they need to provide a full service to both yourself and the CAA." did not hold water.

The only reason that I can see for them being passed back to the CAA is for staistical purposes and if that is the case why not say so on the form?
