This is a report of a pilot with this condition with a discussion of the challenges for the regulator in the assessment for medical certification of pilots with a neurological disability.<jats:bold>CASE\n REPORT:<\/jats:bold> A pilot with CMTX1 declared his condition to the United Kingdom Civil Aviation Authority when his brother was diagnosed with the same condition. Apart from high arched feet and some difficulty playing sports, he had no problems until his mid-forties, when he very slowly developed\n increasing weakness with foot dorsiflexion and later wasting and weakness of the small hand muscles. He reported no problems with any flying activity. On clinical examination, it seemed likely that the disability would have an impact on his ability to undertake all the flying tasks of a commercial\n pilot, including those required in emergencies.<jats:bold>DISCUSSION:<\/jats:bold> A modified Medical Flight Test (MFT) specifically tailored by the regulator to test areas of functional impairment allowed the successful certificatory assessment of a pilot with this condition; an approach which could apply\n to any pilot with a rare neurological disability.<jats:bold>Jagathesan T, OBrien M, Rattray A. <jats:italic>Certification of a pilot with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease<\/jats:italic>.
