Airline Pilot Questions & Answers
1

Hi everyone,

I’m looking to start flight school soon and had a couple questions. I have a mild case of Tourette syndrome, nothing I can’t handle (small muscle twitches and/or eye twitches). How likely or unlikely am I to get a 1st Class Medical Certificate? Or even hired on an airline? Any advice is helpful for sure. Thanks in advance!

Isaac,

None of us are AMEs (Aviation Medical Examiner) nor are we qualified to give medical advice. You need to consult one and they can tell you if you can and what you need to do. If you can obtain a First Class Medical you can fly for an airline. If you can’t you can’t.
