Getting your medical certificate
Being medically certified may require different qualifications in different countries, however,
the general rule applies that you need to find a qualified AME, or Aviation Medical Examiner.
You can quickly find an examiner within driving distance by simply referring to the following
website:
www.faa.gov/pilots/amelocator/
The above website is hosted by the FAA, which is strictly the American Aviation
Administration. However, the directory lists AMEs throughout the entire world, even in
countries where English is not considered a primary language, so it shouldn’t take too long to
be certified as medically fit using the above site as a starting point.
