Medical assessment for private pilots will be adjusted soon. From July 15, medical examination and auxiliary examination can be conducted at any hospital of Grade A at the tertiary level in China, and individuals can apply for medical certificates for civil aviation personnel following the medical assessment by chief doctors from aviation medical assessment institutions.

On the basis of the relaxed medical standards for private pilots in 2018, the policy adjustment has furthered refined the medical assessment process for aviation personnel by separating medical examination and aviation medical assessment. This is an important measure taken by CAAC to implement the requirements of “delegating power, improving regulation, and upgrading services” and to promote the development of general aviation, which will provide great convenience for people who are interested in joining civil aviation and who want to know more about flying.
