Hi All,

Just a quick question to see if anyone has any knowledge on the matter.

I have recently been invited down for stage 2 in Fareham but have yet to select a date.

I have been scheduled in for a Nuss procedure (metal bar inserted in chest to fix sunken chest) in July (mostly cosmetic, surgeon advised possible chance of increased breathing etc.)

I was wondering if this procedure would have any effect on the ATC post or possibly the medical test? (if I make it that far of course!)

If anyone has any experience or knowledge of this it would be much appreciated!

Many thanks
Craig

No knowledge of it Craig, but do have a word with CAA and NATS medical branches.
