The initial presentation of any cardiovascular anomaly requires an evaluation be performed, by your personal physician, to establish eligibility for FAA medical certification. This includes but is not limited to:
- Arrhythmias
- Hypertension
- Angina Pectoris
- Murmurs
- Myocardial Infarction (heart attack)
- Cardiac Valve Replacement
- Permanent Cardiac Pacemaker
- Coronary Heart Disease
- Heart Transplant
- Cardiovascular medication use
Cardiovascular evaluations must be accomplished in compliance with FAA Protocol / Standards.
In most cases, Aviation Medical Examiners (AME’s) cannot approve certification and will defer the application to Oklahoma City FAA for authorization. The deferral process usually takes 4-6 months without our service.
