Thanks for your reply.
He is unaided 20/80 and currently corrected to 20/20 with contacts. His friend is in his first year there and he is unaided 20/800+ and he wasn’t disqualified to fly. The friend says, AF will put him through lasik when he’s almost done school.
As for the hearing issue, the ENT did a second hearing exam which he passed; “audiogram is perfectly normal. SRT is 10dB bilaterally and discrimination is excellent.”
The report saying he was not pilot qualified came from a doctor at DODMERB
I was thinking we should write to him and ask if he could reread the entire ENT report, perhaps he missed this as it is in th last paragraph.
