I've said it befo I have two physicians: my flight guy and my real doctor. The two have never met. The problem is that the FAA's medical form asks you whether you have ever been diagnosed with certain conditions (including depression), and it is perjury to answer falsely. The form does not ask whether you consider the diagnosis correct or whether you consider the diagnosing physician competent. --Gary

I just wanted to point out why someone might reasonably perceive there to be a problem in the situation described. --Gary
