FAA Medical online

One for the FAA Certificate holders:

Whereabouts online can I download the rules about the duration of the Class III medical. I can find FAR/AIM, but I just can’t see the trees for the forest on the duration.

My own paper copy is buried in a tea chest somewhere.

Thanks

Welcome to the forum Mr ‘Dutch’.

Thank you very very much for your response. That is exactly what I need.

I am already booked in for my examination, so I’m afraid I will not be calling upon your services this time. Some other poor sod can cover me in those hideous probes.

Wish me luck.

You need some advice from fellow Maule-ette Dr Voeten, a FAA AME from Daventry (available for medicals at reasonable rates I gather!). I have mailed him a link to this topic.
