Nope. He was SCHEDULED for a physical. I was never ORDERED to take a
physical in my life.



And what would happen if a current Guard
pilot serving in Iraq grounded himself by not
taking a scheduled flight physical?





Simple. He's grounded, removed from flight status, and either relaesed
from active duty, or re-assigned to another job. Any pilot or
crewmwmber may voluntarily quit flying as a crewmwmber at any time.
Flying duty is a volunteer hazardous duty, the same as parachute jump
status, explosive ordnance disposal, and diving.
