  1. Yahoo News- The officer who shot the gunman, Kimberly Munley, also was wounded. "She happened to encounter the gunman. In an exchange of gunfire, she was wounded but managed to wound him four times," Cone said. "It was an amazing and aggressive performance by this police officer." to her
  2. Go Ducks, Finally got my FC1 certified last week. Just wanted to say thanks for the info and advice you provided along the way. to you!
  3. Go Ducks, My FC1 has been "pending certification" at AETC for over a month and today I recieved an email stating I need both a corneal topography and a color diopter map done. My FC1 contains a waiver for my excessive astigmatism so I assume these tests have something to do with that. From my research both tests are looking at the shape/health of my cornea, is this correct? In particular looking for signs of keratoconus? When I have these tests done at my eye doc will he be able to tell me if I have passed or failed these tests? Or if I do have or am showing signs of developing keratoconus? What would have to show up for me to recieve a DQ? As always, thank you for your help.
  4. Go Ducks, I just recieved an email from Robins Flight Medicine stating that my Exophoria from the IFC1 was at 6 prism diopters. They are requiring me to go to my civ eye doctor to have a phoria and tropia exam done. From searching here and reading the reg (A2.7.2) it appears that at 6 prism diopters of exophoria is when they require these additional tests. Will I need a waiver if the civ doctor also finds me to have 6 prism diopters? Do you see a lot of DQ's for this type of condition? Thanks for your help.
  5. Thanks GD your wisdom/time is much appreciated. Would wearing my glasses more reqularly help prevent the scenario you described?
  6. Go Ducks, Thanks for the response! I do have a current pair of glasses that I brought to my FC1 and that I can bring to Brooks for my MFS screening. Would you recommend I go to a civ eye doctor to find out if I have any indications of corneal degeneration? Also, is a waiver granted for excessive astigmatism the same as it is for excessive refraction? That is up to -3.00 diopters, meaning I am within waiverable limits?? The doc at Robins told me my eyes looked great other than the astigmatism. Thanks again for your help.
  7. Flight Docs, I had my IFC1 yesterday at Robins AFB. I was selected for a pilot slot on the 09ot01 OTS boards. My vision was as follows and I am wondering how I am looking for a excessive refraction waiver. Refraction: Left: +050 -2.75x95 Right: +025 -2.25x70 Acuity: Distance: 20/40 correctable to 20/20 Near: 20/25 correctable to 20/20 I was suprised because this was the first time I have ever had a (+) number in my prescription. Thanks for your help.
