What are the health requirements to obtain a private pilot’s license?

March 4, 2010 - 2:19 pm 2 Comments

I’m thinking of taking flying lessons and wondered what the health requirements are. I am color-blind. Would that affect my eligibility? What are any other health requirements?

You should be in good general health and free of any medical conditions which might cause you to become incapacitated in flight, such as epilepsy, insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, hypertension (because of the increased risk of incapacitating heart problems or stroke), etc.

You can get a license if you are color-blind. If you can pass any one of about two dozen approved color vision tests, you can get an unrestricted license. Otherwise, you’ll generally get a license that doesn’t allow night flight or flight without a working radio.

That’s how it works in the U.S. Other countries may differ.

In general, the medical requirements for pilots are still very strict and somewhat inconsistent—if you’ve ever had a seizure in your life, you might be disqualified, but if you take a drug like ethanol daily, no problem. The FAA claims that at least 95% of all applicants can obtain a medical certification allowing them to fly.

If you can’t get a license, you can still fly, but only with a licensed pilot who acts as pilot in command. So you could fly a small Cessna with yourself and a licensed pilot friend on board, for example.

How do you refill your health with a minor health potion on Diablo 2?

Like click the red potion and then what?
Cause i got plenty of health potion but don’t know how to use it to refill my health.

Sorry, i just started playing Diablo.

You can right click on a potion to drink it, or just tap the keys 1,2,3 or 4 in order to drink the potion of that slot. Key 3 means the third slot from the right and so on.

How do I approach my co-worker who has halitosis/bad breath?

one of my co-workers had really bad breath and he gets very close when he talks to people. I back away from him a foot whenever he gets next to me – not just because he has bad breath, but he gets too close. This guy isn’t a gum chewer, so I can’t offer him gum, and even when he has a breath mint when offered, it doesn’t really take – an hour later he has bad breath again. Other than backing away constantly, is there a way to inadvertently fix this or make it known to him?

You can tell him anonymously that he has bad breath here: http://therabreath.com/tellafriend.asp

If he has chronic bad breath, you should let him know because that can signify a more serious health issue.

Get The Word Out: Using SEO For Your Health Website

It can be really frustrating to create a great health oriented website that no one visits because no one can find it on Google. The best way to avoid this is to get more website traffic by getting backlinks to your website from link networks. Sure, you should also use methods like article marketing and forum posting to get backlinks but you can save yourself a bunch of time and effort by using these link networks as well, since they bring you links automatically. This is much less time consuming and much less expensive than many manual techniques.
