Does Albert Puskas (AME) know that Bashir Salamati (pilot) outwardly encourages people to lie about their medical problems?

My AME is a wonderful, wonderful man named Albert Puskas. He's also a
lawyer, and he's the AME that helped Bob Hoover get his medical back.
He told me a story a while ago that made my hair go straight.

He had a patient who had a commercial multi IFR but was not working as
a pilot. One day he had chest pains and went to the hospital. They
did basic tests, gave him an anti-acid and told him he was fine, but
sent him for a stress echo cardiogram and a contrast cardiac CT. They
came back negative - he really was fine.

So the next time the pilot's medical came up he answered all the
questions truthfully - after all, he KNEW there was nothing wrong with
his heart. He attached the test results and everything went to FAA.

FAA turned him down because of his "heart condition"

That's when the guy came to Puskas. Puskas tried for MONTHS to get a
straight answer. Finally he went to a medical convention, and he knew
that the regional flight surgeon was going to be there, so he took the
guy's file. Buttonholed him at the reception, laid out the file in
front of him. The flight surgeon apologized and the guy had his
medical certificate 3 days later.

Never, never, never admit anything to an AME. Never. Ever. Even if
you are having a stroke in his office.

I am curious, Mark. How is it that you, and your mother, and your
brother Doug all use social security numbers that start with the same 5
digits?

And it is very sad, John and Joseph dying almost exactly a year apart
like that. It must have been very hard on you.

I think we should all call your mother and let her know how badly we
all feel for her. We should et her know that you're a success in our
eyes, no matter how many jobs you're fired from, no matter how much
you are sued for, no matter what kind of bigoted and homophobic things
you write on the Usenet,

Do say hello to Tony Anderson for us the next time you see him.

Bushy Salami now PLEADS with his doctor to keep his medical
certification! The FAA has big problems with individuals like BUSHY
outwardly expressing that lying is the way to go! Having fun Bushy?
