CAA class 1 medial

Hello guys,

Is the class one medical tuff? Yes this has probably been answered but I have a different situation my index finger on my right hand is a joint shorted then on my left, do you guys recon this would fail my medical ?

My mums friend who is a pilot said he cant see it being a problem, but its better for me to find out before booking the medical test.

Thanks

Hi jcosta,

If you have any specific questions, you're much better off getting in touch with the CAA at Gatwick directly. They will be able to advise you whether there are likely to be any problems with obtaining a Class One. Their contact details are here.

The medical is only tough if you have a medical problem which is not compatible with the standards required.

I doubt that a shorter index finger is a problem.
