UK Pilot Medical Requirements – Expert Explains


A Class 2 Medical Certificate is required to receive a private pilot license (PPL).

This license follows many of the same medical considerations as shown with a Class 1 Medical Certificate.

However, in this case, the individual will receive a Class 2 Medical Certificate instead.

The Class 2 Medical Certificate covers a 60-month period for pilots under the age of 40.

If the 60-month period takes you past the age of 40, your certificate will automatically become invalid at the age of 42.

For pilots between the ages of 40 and 50, the certificate is only valid for a 24-month period and will automatically become invalid when a pilot reaches the age of 51.

For pilots over the age of 50, this certificate is only valid for 12 months.

The full list of Class 2 medical requirements for pilots can be found here, and you can book an appointment with an AME here.
