Colour blindness and cabin crew, I am mildly red green deficient
-
#1 Found out in a school test I am mildly red green colour deficient. Does this end the cabin crew plan?
-
#2 Not necessarily. The medical checks that you can distinguish the colours used in cabin signage, emergency lighting and equipment. Mild deficiency often passes a practical lantern style test. Severe deficiency can be disqualifying. Get a proper test from an optometrist and bring the result to the medical. Plenty of crew are mildly deficient.

#3 Optometrist says mild, and he thinks a practical test would be fine. Plan continues.
