Class 2 Initial
The initial examination includes a thorough exploration of your medical history, full physical clinical examination, vision tests, hearing test, urine test and ECG. If corrective lenses are worn EASA still requires a copy of the vision prescription TO BE BROUGHT TO THE INITIAL MEDICAL.
Class 2 Revalidation
An ECG is required at the first medical after 40 and not again until age 50 when the requirement is 2 yearly thereafter – unless clinically indicated (no longer annually over the age of 50). Those Class 2 pilots, particularly over 50 years, who value their annual ECG will be offered one at a reduced fee.
NB: Under EASA it is now possible for a Class 2 pilot to instruct and be paid for doing so.

Vision
The refractive vision criteria (opticians prescription) has been abandoned under EASA FOR CLASS 2 however applicants will still be required to meet acuity standards which are 6/12 in each eye separately and 6/9 using both eyes. If spectacles are worn EASA still requires copy of the vision prescription to be provided at the Initial examination only. Unless there is a change in vision or eye symptoms Class 2 pilots are not required to bring an updated vision prescription to each medical examination.
Pilots who do not meet the 6/12 (each eye) may still be able to gain certification if they pass a medical flight test as long as the good eye has normal vision. click here for more detailed information.
Specific Medical Conditions
Under EASA it is also now possible for pilots with the following medical conditions to hold Class 2 certification. Please follow the link above for more specific information on: diabetes, depression, and anticoagulant medication.
Decrease in Medical Fitness
