Im super worried about my 3rd class medical.
Asked by: Chris West 4952 views FAA Regulations, Private Pilot, Student Pilot
I just got back from my first AME exam. Everything went pretty well until we came to the mental health. When i was 6, i was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. At 14 i stopped taking meds and im 17 now and havent showed any signs of bipolar or any mental problems. My parents think it was even a misdiagnosis. Anyways, the AME wants me to send my mental medical history to the FAA for their decision. Im super scared and worried that my whole life plan and future career as a commercial pilot might go down the drain. Im super worried. This is my whole life revolving around getting this. Is there anything else i can do to ensure it passing?
