You should do some research before you post such BS.


Well, since I had my esophagus removed due to cancer, yes I've done
research.

Please read the FAA Policy on Cancer section in this flight surgeon's

Ask Cecil Chapman
how long it was before he got back in the cockpit after breast cancer.


Breast cancer is a special case. However, I'm wrong about the non-
metastatic timeline, which is great.
