pilot training while pregnant - in South Africa
Before all the confusion of different regulations from far flung horizons begins... this is a south african post, about a south african student pilot, flying south african registered aircraft, in accordance with south african CAA.
The question is...
up until how many weeks is it legal and acceptable to continue flying training towards a PPL?
I'd love to hear the responses, from quotable references preferably...
Thanks all

Flying Whilst Pregnant
Hi flyingmogul,
As far as the South African regulations are concerned, Part 67 - Medical Certification will apply here. in particular Part 67.00.09 (b) and (c).
I know this doesn't particularly apply to a PPL student, but this was all I could find with regards to fying whilst pregnant. The entire regulation is quite a large document and would be a little clumbsy to post here. If, however, you would like to read the entire document, just send me a PM.
