I'm guessing it's major stuff like heart problems, seizures, etc. that cannot be alleviated by therapy or by medication that won't leave you in condition to fly.
Just curious, right now...don't intend to go through the process. But does anyone have more insight on what's the "kiss of death" for a Special Issuance?
