ELIGIBILITY FOR MEDICAL APTITUDE EXAMINATION

The EASA Class 1 medical examination is an essential step in your training as an airline transport pilot. It guarantees that you meet all the health requirements necessary for this profession. It will be reviewed annually throughout your career.

During an EASA Class 1, several aspects of your health are assessed to ensure that you meet the safety criteria required to become an airline transport pilot.

This includes a thorough examination of your vision (including colour vision) and hearing, and a check of your cardiovascular functions with an electrocardiogram (ECG). Laboratory tests, such as blood and urine analyses, are carried out to detect any abnormalities. A neurological and psychological examination may also be carried out to assess your mental state and your ability to cope with stress.
