FAA Medical Exams

Get Your FAA Medical Certificate

In order to fly, a pilot must meet minimum physical and mental safety standards as determined by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). A pilot can meet these requirements by completing an FAA medical exam and obtaining an FAA Medical Certificate from an FAA-designated Aviation Medical Examiner (AME).

FAA Medical Certificates are granted after successful completion of both an online application and a flight physical. By law, pilots must carry their FAA Medical Certificate with them every time they fly.
