Good advice. If it is something that might take a special issuance,
there are folks such as Virtual Flight Surgeons that supposedly
facilitate getting all the right data to the FAA and through their
system. I've been grounded with kidney stone in the past and AOPA was
very helpful in getting my medical restored once the condition had
passed.

John,
Please, please, please listen to the good advice from the group and finish
your project. You'll never forgive yourself if you don't build that -9
and see it fly, especially after all the hard work you've invested. The
worst-case is you can't renew your FAA medical and someone has to fly with
you. There are two individuals in my area in that situation and they fly
regularly -- all they need is a qualified pilot to ride along and log the
time. Somehow they never seem to have trouble finding a volunteer, even
on short notice!
Definitely contact AOPA for help with your medical issue vis-a-vis the
FAA. You might be surprised what you can get waived if you follow the
right procedure. AOPA has been helping folks with these problems for a
long time and they have a staff of experts for just that purpose.
