Class III medical

Post by Boeing boy »

Hey guys

I have an appointment to get my class III aviation medical on Monday. I was wondering what sorts of things they test? I know urine sample for one.. but that's all i know. Any help or advice will help.

Thanks

Make sure you can't see two of the doctors hands during the prostate exam.

don't forget $55 for TC for doing nothing, so $185 total.

Do you pay extra for this? :mrgreen:

Once again, where are you going that they do a prostate exam? :shock:

I wasn't aware of any TC fees... as you said it's probably a stupid and unnecessary fee.

I was surprised by the $55.00 invoice from TC when I renewed my medical as I was never charged for the first one. I asked a few friends that started at the same time and it was the same story - only on renewal. Now this was a few years back so not sure if this is still the case.
