difficult like that.


Kinzakuk (pronounced Kin - zah - cook).

He was OK as far as AME's go.


He's a perfectionist -- wants to do the best job possible. While I like that in a
pilot or an eye doctor, when he's serving as an AME, he's working for the FAA, not
for me. If there's any question about your exam, it goes to Oklahoma City (he even
skips the regional flight surgeon). Once that's done, neither he nor his staff is any
help at all in finding the status of your deferred medical -- they can't or won't
even give you the phone number of the FAA office there.

I prefer someone a little closer to the "if he can see well enough to write the
check, he's ok" sort of AME. Or at least someone willing to find out why OK City
hasn't responded after three months or so.
