FAA Medical Certification
The privilege of piloting an aircraft is subject to the rigorous standards of the FAA’s Aviation Medical Certification Division. When an airman’s FAA Medical Certification it is threatened, or taken away entirely, the years and dollars spent obtaining those licenses are at risk.
If you are a first time applicant for a medical certificate and you have questions or concerns, the process can be intimidating and fearful if you are not sure how to correctly complete the medical application (MedXpress or 8500 Form).
