Should I get the records together first and then
take the medical? See, I don't want to even start taking instruction

What do y'all think, is it possible, or just a pipe dream?

Thanks...

Doug, it's my understanding that AOPA will help and/or advise on just these
situations. You may want to contact them and explain much as you have laid out
here your condition(s). On the other hand, there may be some that are left
well enough alone.

It's also my understanding that one can't fail a medical then receive a Sport
Pilot Certificate, however if one allows their Class 2/3 to expire, then
reverts to flying under Sport Pilot rules, that's cool. I know you mentioned
that you would prefer PPL to Sport Pilot, but some flying is better than none.
