Re: [Aus-soaring] Initial issue medicals driver's licence
You can only medically self declare for solo pilot status, anything else (A.E.I. upwards) need to be medically certified : From 1 January 2013 pilots holding a GFA Instructor authorisation (i.e. AEI, Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3) must be medically examined by a legally qualified medical practitioner and found fit to fly in accordance with Appendix 2 of the GFA Operational Regulations; or be a holder of a current CASA Class 1 or 2 Medical Certificate. Same goes for a coach I think : Chris Runeckles On Mon, Oct 14, 2013 at 12:25 PM, Mark Newton new...@atdot.dotat.orgwrote: On Oct 14, 2013, at 2:37 PM, Texler, Michael michael.tex...@health.wa.gov.au wrote: Great!

If you fly immediately after receiving your medical certification, you're medically certified. If you fly an hour later, or a day later, or a year later (pick the interval of your choice), you're self-certifying that your medical certification is still valid, and that nothing about your health situation has changed to call the doctor's examination results into doubt. Your DAME/GP doesn't give you a piece of paper that says you're healthy for the next two years. They give you a piece of paper that says you were medically fit at the exact date and time at which they signed it. Any interpretation above and beyond that is a conceit and a fabrication.

Doctors aren't time travelers, right? That depends whether you are a doctor or the doctor.
