A recent NTSB decision involved an airman’s attempts to obtain a medical certificate in spite of the airman’s disqualifying conditions. The case was based upon the FAA’s denial of a second application for medical certificate submitted by the airman after the airman had lost his appeal of the FAA’s denial of a previously submitted application. For a discussion and analysis of the case, and the difficulties faced by the airman, please read my article:NTSB Affirms Dismissal Of Airman’s Second Attempt To Gain Medical Certificate In Spite Of History Of Disqualifying Conditions.
