747-400 questions WARNING! WARNING!
I was not talking of the PPL, I was talking Light Sport Pilot.
The PPL should not be ruled out. I don't see any FAA regulation that says
you
must have depth perception in order to fly. Depth perception only works
for a
distance of 60 feet or so, anyway, and if you're within 60 feet of another
aircraft, you have more serious problems than vision correction to worry
about.
Be careful.. ever fail an FAA Medical and you cannot do Light Sport
Pilot.
Why not?
Please be advised that, although our favorite Troll appears to be correct in
this case, he NEVER obtains or reads complete documents. Therefore, his
imformation is gained from the excerpts posted by other contributors,
frequently (as in this case) postings earlier in the same conversation!

If you have, or suspect, any condition which might affect your medical
certification, discuss it with an AME before you "start the clock" with an
application, have a verbal discussion with your local Safety Program
Coordinator for Flight Standards, or *better still*, call AOPA and make full
use of your membership.
Your AOPA membership would be a good value is all you received was the
magazine. However, the combination of advocacy and advice make one of the
best bargains anywhere!
