Hi,

I've heard a couple of times lately that the examiner checks for scoliosis while giving an FAA medical. I hope to become an air traffic controller, and I remember in Jr. High school being told that i had scoliosis. It has never caused a problem for me though, I rarely if ever have any back pain. Am I going to have a problem?
