Good for six more months.
I do have a kidney stone in that kidney though. Never had one before but at least I'll be around to deal with it.
Divorce started in the courts today as well.
A good days work I guess.

What are the medical cert issues you have to deal with for this Jim?
cert issues

I have a long way to go towards cert.
I am on a buttload of meds but my Doctor told me his goal is in about a year if I continue to make progress he will start taking me off the meds that FAA doesn't like with HIS goal of getting me clean to pass my medical and get it back!
Works for me!

Spike,
I still have a lot to go thru with the divorce, now the stone and 9 more of these every 6month CT's before they say for sure it won't come back but this first one had me scared so I'm glad to have it behind me in a positive way is huge.
All my aviation friends have kept me motivated and at times have been the only folks I've been able to talk to during all this.
Thanks again to everybody. It's kinda overwhelming the responses I'm getting everywhere.
It's always nice when you know someone still cares.
Thanks all

Glad to hear you got a clean bill of health for the past six months and hope that you will get your medical back in a year. I am going to try to get my congress person to eliminate the third class medical if you have a driver' license issued in the United States and that would include people who have been denied a third class medical.

I am planning to get working on that shortly after I retun to Minnesota of 1/11/2011 from Florida. I have a little more leg work to do and need to get letters from my heart doctors, who both would allow me to fly an airplane but the FAA thinks they no better! I want the legislation to allow pilots withour a medical to fly airplanes up to 6000lbs but not for commercial purposes and probably not for flight instruction. I have some research done already.
