Medical Requirements
Before embarking on your flight training journey, it is crucial to determine if you meet the medical requirements necessary to become a pilot. Obtaining medical approval early in the process allows you to streamline your training without unnecessary delays.
It is important to note that Commercial Pilots (CPL) undergo more rigorous and frequent medical evaluations, the specifics of which depend on the pilot’s age. CPL holders are required to pass a Category 1 medical exam.
