The view from the CAA house, Gatwick, after the Class 1 Medical (I was somewhat more relaxed by then!)
This month has been very productive. A visit to Heathrow for the Professional Flight Training exhibition started November off. I found out stacks of info, met some great people and came home with a headache with the amount of info I absorbed that day, let alone three bulging goody bags. It all relates to my next step ...commercial flying.However lots of money needs to be saved before before then...we will see how that goes! (Unless I am lucky with the few sponsorships out there!) Incidently, it was interesting to find out about a couple of sponsorship/cadet schemes out there in the industry as well as other schemes to help individuals climb the ladder of commercial training.
I also passed my Class 1 Medical earlier in the month too, so as the post hints, I can now in theory go ahead and plan my commercial training (aslong as I stay fit and healthy!). It was a good move to get checked out with a Class 1 medical first, before big money is spent on hour building and commercial training, as it would be tragic to get through all training only to realise you cannot fly commercially due to a medical problem.
