Help with hearing problem
Hey I need help!
I hold an Australian CPL and have 190 hours flying time. I recently moved to Ireland and did all my ATPL exams and passed them. I then went and did a JAR Class 1 medical and failed due to one of my ears being 10db over the required limit in one frequency due to accident when i was younger. I have no problem hearing in general. I used to hold an ICAO Class 1 in Australia and i am wondering does anybody have an advice for me as to how to go about getting the JAR Class 1.

This is actually for a friend so just got his results
500hz-30db
2000hz-35db
This is only in 1 ear and is outside the initial but just about makes the renewal.

If this is going to be true, it will be one of the best news I ever heard since the new year! It is 5:10pm and it is too late to call CAA medical at Gatwick now. I will definitely call them tomorrow and find out more. I have a deviation (remark) on my class 1 certificate and this will let me to have an option to be trained in Jerez as well. I will post here again once I have more valuable information!

It is true that the new JAA standard is in place and medical at Gatwick is going to send me a replacement full class 1 medical certificate today. Whoever having the same situation should check with their medical people now. Thanks for discussing such important issue!
