Customer Reviews

Good, but not excellent....

This book certainly explains all the basic requirements for all FAA medicals, but I believe the author is too repetitive, especially when he explains 100 times how important the medical is. The whole book could have been a lot shorter. The only interesting part was the nutrition section, and the hypertension chapter.

No more anxiety about the certification process

Fellow licensed pilots, I'm about 1/2-way through this book and I can't believe I did for so long without it. Dr. Reinhart provides every nuance of the Medical Certification Process, along with the encouraging words for taking responsibility for our own "airworthiness." I fly as a hobby, with a 3rd class medical, and this book has taken away much of the anxiety I previously felt about the process. It took me many painstaking years to earn my Private Certificate, and I am now more secure that I'm better equipped to keep current with the knowledge and insights provided by Dr. Reinhart.
