- You are given an EKG - due to my age I'd never had one of those for my first class pilot medicals.
- Color vision is the Dvorine - no exceptions on this initial ATC medical. (they are currently making changes in this area)
Other than that, no biggy. Was in and out in about 30 minutes. | Cannot have a history of high blood pressure either(Even if successfully treated).
