How to Get Your Class 3 Medical Certificate
-
Find an AME: Locate an FAA-approved Aviation Medical Examiner (AME) using the FAA’s “Find an AME” tool.
-
Book Your Exam: Schedule a visit—bring ID, glasses/contacts (if needed), and any medical records.
-
Pass the Checkup: The Class 3 exam assesses:
-
Vision (20/40 or better, corrected if necessary)
-
Hearing (conversational level)
-
Overall health (no major issues impacting flight safety)
-
-
Get Certified: Pass the exam, and your AME issues your Class 3 Medical Certificate—valid for 60 months (under 40) or 24 months (over 40).
-
Keep It Current: Renew as needed to stay flight-ready.
Note: Most Part 107 ops don’t require a medical certificate unless you’re seeking waivers (e.g., beyond visual line of sight). But having one sets you apart as a serious pro—check your use case!
