The thing that got me was the Bextra has no FAA restrictions

Plus, I only have 2 weeks to get the info.

Is this normal?


Yes. Normally, you can let it go longer than 2 weeks, but then you will be
forwarding everything to Oklahoma City and waiting at least 3 months for your
certificate. I sounds like your examiner is cutting you a deal.

If you get deferred it's a MINIMUM of eight weeks. That's if all the submitted
info passes muster. The key is to get the certificate issued subject to review
(it always is anyhow) by the Joklahoma City debacle.

I can't stress how ****ed up Aeromedical Certfication is in Joklahoma City.
This is one part of the FAA that's backwards from the norm. Usually it's
the Field offices that are hosed up. For medical, the field officers are
by and far superior.
