Medical - Hearing

[Guest norlando]

Hi,

 

I wear a hearing aid and was wondering if it was still possible to obtain a pilots certificate? I would dearly love to learn to fly however my hearing problem has prevented me so far.

 

Any info would be great.

 

Thanks

Yep. My instructor actually had 2 hearing aids. You will probably find that with the use of an aviation headset that you probably won't need your hearing aid in flight. That's for RA-Aus. I am unsure of any hearing requirements for General Aviation licences.

 

Good luck.
