REQUIRED CREW MEMBERS
FAA Flight Physical updates 3/26/2020
​
If you are a pilot who requires their medical certificate for employment as a required flight crewmember, the FAA issued a notice on March 26, which states:
“as an exercise of the FAA’s enforcement discretion, through June 30, 2020, the FAA will not take legal enforcement action against any person serving as a required pilot flight crewmember or flight engineer based on noncompliance with medical certificate duration standards when expiration of the medical certificate occurs from March 31, 2020, through June 30, 2020.” This pertains to domestic flight operations only. Airlines have the ability to file for specific exemptions for international operations.
