BasicMed is an option for many pilots to have the ability to fly without having to obtain their 3rd Class Medical Certificate. While BasicMed is an excellent option to have for certain pilots, it isn’t the right option for all pilots. What type of pilot you are working towards, what type of aircraft you will be flying, and where you will be flying are all factors to consider when looking into BasicMed.
What It is Needed for: BasicMed can be used to fly recreationally or privately without a medical certificate for those that will be flying under the criteria for BasicMed.

- Possess a current and valid U.S. driver’s license
- Held valid medical certificate after July 14th, 2006
- Receive a qualifying physical exam from a licensed physician, Comprehensive Medical Examination Checklist must be followed
- Complete BasicMed course
Limitations:
- Limited to aircraft able to carry 6 passengers or less
- Cannot fly an aircraft weighing more than 6,000 lbs
- Cannot fly with more than 5 passengers
