Class 2 Medical: Two Sets of Specs for Assessment
Hi There! First post and looking forward to using this great resource some more.
I'm looking to start towards RPL then PPL. However, I want to get my medical out of the way first before I spend a lot of money on training.
I wear specs and have been told I need to bring two pairs of glasses to my CASA Class 2 medical. I understand you require a spare when flying but didn't think I would need to present both pairs at the medical.
My prescription is pretty specialised (read expensive) so I was only planning on buying another set of specs once I was told I was OK from a medical perspective since I have no need for a spare in my daily life.
Can anybody confirm this is the requirement or whether the receptionist just got it wrong? I thought they were testing my eyesight, not my glasses!
Appreciate any advice you guys have!
Thanks,
Watson
