NPPL Pilot Medicals

 
Quite simply, if you are fit enought to drive a car, you're fit enough to fly.
 
From 2016, the UK CAA have allowed pilots and student pilots to make a medical declaration online. The standard you must meet for the medical declaration is the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) Group 1 Ordinary Driving Licence (ODL) and you must not suffer or have suffered from a list of specified medical conditions.
 
These conditions include:  

 

If you suffer from any of these conditions, you will not be able to use the declaration form as your medical and will instead have to visit an Aviation Medical Examiner for a LAPL (Light Aircraft Pilot's Licence) medical.

 

Full details of the new medicals are on the CAA website here: CAA medicals

 

The actual declaration is linked to here: CAA Medical Declaration
