THE FINE PRINT
Some aircraft and operating restrictions to pay attention to:
* You may fly aircraft up to 6,000 pounds maximum certificated takeoff
weight that are authorized to carry no more than six occupants within
the United States, Mexico, and the Bahamas while carrying no more
than the pilot and five passengers.
* You can fly at an indicated airspeed up to 250 KIAS at an altitude at or
below 18,000 feet mean sea level.
* Pilots operating under BasicMed cannot fly for compensation or hire, but
flight instruction for compensation is permitted.
TO YOUR HEALTH
When it comes to your health and flying safely, be in charge and proactive.
The Medical Self-Assessment: A Pilot's Guide to Flying Healthy course
suggests getting a medical checkup regularly. It also offers thoughts on how
to stay healthy, how to detect signs of adverse medical conditions, and what
to do should you discover a situation that requires medical attention. While
not a replacement for professional medical advice from your physician, the
course reviews matter-of-fact material to help you objectively assess your
condition to fly and comply with the "self-grounding" rule, FAR 61.53.
For example, you can explore scenarios that guide you through several
self-assessment and decision-making processes. You'll also learn about
the complex relationship of medications and flying and the FAA's guidance
on taking medications, including side effects of some over-the-counter
medications that may ground you.
If you have concerns about managing in-flight physiological impairment,
the course has a chapter on that. The course also suggests things you can
do like getting regular health screenings and adapting diet and exercise to
nurture a healthy body.
Review the course periodically-it's your body, your health. Also, download
the various documents and checklists to take along in your flight bag-
especially the preflight and inflight checklists can help manage your health
and safety and that of your passengers before and during every flight.
