Got my class 1 through the post on monday (wooooooohoooooo!!!! :))
Got a question about the renewal part though,
should I have to do the general medical within a year (Im 20 and healthy) or could the 05 part in the box be a lazy effort that looks like a 1???
Thanx

You could phone them and see but on mine I have to get the gen med done again in a year but you can get it done anywhere - that is where the local doc is an AME or AMS or something. Look on the website for the CAA and it'll give you a lis of people local to you.

I thankfully just recieved my class 1 medical aswell and i had to phone up CAA to find out when the general medical had to be rechecked and it is one year after the day you passed the medical.Hope this helps. FD

My prescription is Left eye -3.25 Right eye -3.5. I can't find my prescription card which tells me everything else but once I find it I will let you know the rest.
Cheers FD
Sorry I forgot to add I am short sighted and wear glasses from when I get out of bed in the morning(these days more like the afternoon) and I take them off just as I go to bed.(not very good)

Tunneler from what I understand your eyes aren't that back so you won't have anything to worry about except the optitions bill. My last bill can to a grand total of £170.47 ( might not seem like much to some but to a student)
