Medical Certificates
EASA Medical Certificate
For CPL, IR, MEP, FI/IRI, 0-ATPL you need Class 1 Medical Certificate.
For PPL, NR, and ATPL theory you need a Class 2 Medical Certificate. If you hold a PPL with an instrument rating, you will need to undertake an audiometry test.
EASA Medical Certificate
Class 1: 12 months until the age of 40 (depending on the type of flying being performed)
Class 2:
- 60 months until you are 40
- 24 months if you are between 40 and 50
- 12 months if you are over 50
The Class 1 medical examination in Prague takes 2 days, is generally considered more thorough and includes also psychological assessment (several different cognitive and aptitude tests).
The Class 1 medical examination in Vienna takes 1 day and includes very brief psychological assessment.
If you are a Czech or Slovak going for a medical examination in Prague (both Class 1 and 2), you need to bring a report of your medical records from your general practitioner.
