 Great! You can medically self declare here in WA for your initial, no

You medically self-declare before every flight.  That class-2 medical 
certificate you received 23 months and 29 days ago only certifies your medical 
fitness at the specific time and date of the examination;  everything after 
that is based on your personal judgement call.

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 :

You're missing my point.

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.
