Regaining Class 1 after brain surgery

[Brainy330]

Hi all,

Recently I was diagnosed and treated successfully for a low grade brain tumor. The resection went well and for now no further treatment is not necessary, we will just continue to watch the area with regular MRI's.
According to EASA, I would be able to regain my class 1 medical in one year, obviously assuming no neurological sympstoms arise in the mean time. This maybe premature, but I would be keen in hearing of any colleagues who dealt with similar issues in the past?

Cheers!

The silence here doesn’t bode well... ��

I can give you an FAA perspective, but I don't know how well it will translate across the pond.

I wish you all the best of luck.

@421dog: Although not FAA licensed, any kind information would appreciated. Even if only it could clarify my case with the EASA Authorities.

I know a Canadian pilot who lost his medical because of a seizure during chemotherapy. Over six years later he is doing fine and is allowed to drive, but not fly :confused:
