I submit that there is no case for a glider medical. I know of two
pilots who both had current FAA medicals and had heart problems
requiring stent implantation. Neither had any physical warning, much
less an AME telling them they had impending problems. Both are,
thankfully, just fine - but no thanks to a bureaucratic medical
process.
