I tried to listen, but the link was not working----------or my poor brain was not up to the task of dealing with the itune stuff?

Any chance of an explanation of how to get this working------or a direct link that bypasses the icrap?
 
Mike,

Go here and then scroll down to the second podcast and hit the green play button:

Chris----thanks, that worked.

By the way, the part with DR. Chien starts at the 25 minute mark.

Turbo----thanks for bringing this to our attention, appreciate it. I could not find any "play button" in your link, most likely something in my software.

One thing that was mentioned in the podcast was concerning CPAP and the need to provide documentation of using the machine for the last year-------showing 6 hr/night for at least 75% of the time.

This was a total surprise to me, as I have been on a special issuance for CPAP for the last 6 years, and had never heard of this needed documentation.

I emailed DR Chien, and also made a phone call to AOPA. So far, no response from DR Chien, but AOPA said this is not applicable to me, as my letter of authorization is dated prior to the current requirement. I was also directed to the AOPA site where it is spelled out pretty clearly.

SO-----if you are on an older SI for sleep apnea, and listen to the podcast and get the same surprise as I did, please read this info from AOPA.
