Flying Instructors & Examiners A place for instructors to communicate with one another because some of them get a bit tired of the attitude that instructing is the lowest form of aviation, as seems to prevail on some of the other forums!

RBBB

Whirly, I have been told this RBBB is a non life threatening condition, by about 4 different individuals including consultant and professors! Additionally, it is considered that it will have no direct on life expectency etc.. For this reason I dont think it would be appropriate for insurance companies to be notified (my opinion) re travel....You are at no higher risk than anyone else! LE!

leading edge, thanks. My opinion too, but this year I reported it, and it put up the premium by £40! You need to report everything, they say. Maybe I'll ask my AME. Or try another travel insurance company next year.

In terms of iRBBB it is deemed to be a normal varient and found in approx 10 per cent of the population. I wouldn't mention it. Its also not a condition. The CAA are only interested in it as it occassionally indicates pathological issues which of course would be significant to your medical.
