@Tailspin16
i think you're mixing up with contact lens which is completely okay to wear, alot of pilots do wear them
contact lens btw can never be bi-focal, they can either be used for myopia or hyperopia
bi-focal lens are only available in glasses where the top have is for myopia and the bottom part is for hyperopia, so apparently you were way off :(

@DJ Flyboy
yes that's true, my class 1 medical certificate says i can use both 'contact lens' as well as 'glasses', but my concern was what if i develop hyperopia a few years from now, i always like to be one step ahead and know what my options are :)

@ everybody
 

Hi All,

did anybody have any luck with the info on GD Dates? have any of the groups been called in for GD so far post March at all? if this is the state, i believe the Aug session would probably stand canceled.

cheers

@ puneeth
 

August session?

@puneeth
 

if you mean to say that guys who failed GDs in august will not be called for GD, i don't think thats gonna happen.

@Aroumika: FYI bifocal contact lenses now are available.....they are available on Make For Order basis....quite expensive though.....but those are not allowed while flying....:ok:

well i agree with @hawaijahaj.....
bi focal lenses are available....and well as far as i know one can wear bi-focal glasses while flying....not tooo sure weather dgca allows that or not.

and regarding normal lenses, it depends on the airline weather they allow u to wear lenses while flying or not.....u have to go through some medical check up's before that....or else wear glasses...

comeon guys...... may be we should concentrate on something really important like recruitment and job opportunities rather than thinking "what if something goes wrong"... this is such an useful forum and i feel we can use it in a better way. thanks

Hey what do you guys think about these books to prepare for technical and the exam.
1. Air pilot manual 4 - the airplane technical ( pooley's air pilot publishing)
2. The technical pilot interview by Gary V. Bristov.

hey anyone have any idea when jet's gonna call for GD....................???????????

Hello guys...

Now this is something absurd what I have heard....I came to know this from a friend of mine who has a relative working in the medical department of dgca.....

My friend told me that according to his relative, the medical files of around 40 guys were transferred to the Jet Airways office upon their request....and he is speculating that this might be for the recruitment purpose as this thing happened before also when last recruitment was done by Jet (as for the medical conducted by jet airways needs to be referred to their medical file in the dgca).....

Now I am personally not selected for the GD of jet but i thought it shud share this info wid others...

Hey, thanks for sharing the info.

But why would they ask for only 40 files, they must have selected at least 300 guys for the GD, and medical is the last thing they check. :suspect:

This was probably for the last induction batch from August 2010. My friend had his medical with Jet earlier this month.

Update????
 

Hey fellas...Please provide any update, if anyone has it....this is getting very frustrating now....:ugh:

makaviator - thanks mate.. great help!

GD ?
 

can someone plz chk with the jet airways HR as to when would the Gd be held?

why dont those who are so interested in finding out when the gd dates are take some time out and try n find out themselves?

just got a mail from jet to say the gd is in the 3rd week of august, most of you should have got it too :)
finally some relief, especially after flunking indigo :P
