Short profile:

If you decide to start flying training, it is advisable to have your medical performed at an early stage to confirm that you are fit. Legally, you cannot fly solo until you are in possession of a valid medical certificate. There is nothing worse than having your instructor decide that you are ready to go solo and then finding that you have to wait to have your medical. I would recommend having it performed no later than after the first four hours of training. The youngest age at which you can have your medical examination is 15 years and six months - there is no upper age limit.

Detailed description:

Each examination comprises a medical questionnaire, physical examination and, if necessary according to the schedule, an ECG (heart tracing) and/or audiogram (hearing test). A urine sample is always required so please try to attend with a fairly full bladder. You may provide the sample on arrival.
