Medical Checkrides
Hey..
I have limited range of mobility in my right arm due to a condition at birth. I went for my class III medical and after a few months of wait, I got word from the FAA office that in order to get my PPL, I would have to go on a medical checkride to waive any existing restrictions and that for the time being, they'd grant me a Student Pilot Certificate so that I could solo.
I wanted to know, what are the medical checkrides like? Are they like regular PPL checkrides wherein the person will make you perform all the stalls and maneuvers?
Thanks
