Similar problem here. I am already a pilot for the USAF and have deployed already and flown with this issue (doc already knew before signing me off for deployment) so I can prove I can do my primary duties of flying. However, I have bad ITBS which stops me from running the 1.5 mile run the last couple of times. ITBS only happens from running, totally fine outside of that. I complete the remainder of the test with no issues and am in good physical shape. Is this a type of issue that would DQ me from continued flying if I keep getting waivers for it for the run? Is there such thing as a long term waiver for this or do I just need to keep going back every 6 months? I have done physical therapy in the past but to no permanent solution as this issue keeps coming back. I do not want to keep pushing through the injury since I have read that ITBS can get pretty serious if you push it too far. BLUF: I have ITBS which makes it so I can't do the 1.5 mile of the PT test, was wondering if this issue and or waiver will keep me from flying (I know there are different standards for active pilots). Any regulation guidance would be helpful. Can PM more details if needed.
