Cat 1 Renewal

Post by CYQT »

What exactly do they do for your cat 1 renewal? I know there is no audiogram, but do they need to do another ECG? or is it just a quick check-up and a stamp on your medical?

thanks

Depends how old you are? For my last one you just pee in a cup prove you have 20/20 vision and they wisper in the corner to figure out if you can hear. Other than that just a general check up nothing fancy.

Should be the exact same, just less the audio and ECG/EKG if you are under 40.

I know for myself when I renewed my Cat 1 medical for the first time I didn't have to do the audiogram or the EKG. I am renewing my Cat 1 medical tomorrow afternoon for the second time and now I need to do the audiogram and EKG again and am under the age of 40. Hope that helps.
