  1. Hello everyone, I am required to be drug tested in order to get my solo pilots license. My testing happens in November and could be a hair test, urine test, or saliva test. I'm primarily worried about hair testing. I've only smoked three times in my life. One was in December, and the other two in February. I am worried because there's a chance they could take hair that isn't from my head that I don't shave. Does anyone thinkni will pass? Thanks.
     
  2. It is definitely possible, maybe...Probably, anyway.:coolalt:
     
  3. I do a lot of sky action and suggest you get a home test kit

    any chance of being positive then delay delay again delay

    until clean

    assume this is for a PPL..?

    they be more interested in your personality

    and its stability than the drugs you use

    in the meantime keep practicing for the exams

    good luck

    Do you know if they use hair or urine in their tests? Thanks.
     
  5. No I don't ...phone and ask imo

    I should think being govt.

    is the most expensive one ...lol
     
  6. You are on the right track. Typically with the government what you get is the cheapest option while paying three times what it cost in the private sector. It is amazing to see but they can be both the most wasteful and the cheapest at the same time. At one place I worked the government built a two-hundred million dollar facility and had us piecing together a video conference system using free usb webcams and old pay phone receivers.
