"OAKLAND (KPIX 5) – When it comes to clearing pilots for takeoff, the Federal Aviation Administration uses regular medical exams to make sure they're fit to fly. But the process may not be fair for everyone in the cockpit.
Every time Jessica Zacharias starts the engine of a plane, she's fulfilling a childhood dream."

you sound very nice
I have a private cert and probably will get a new medical soon, along with getting recurrent. I guess I'll see what all this entails then.
I would definitely wait until the middle of December to check on the status of things. There is another transgender pilot working to re-write the policy. My understanding of it, is that in early December the policy will change if approved.
