Another BasicMed "convert"

[GalinHdz]

After more than 37yrs of maintaining FAA medicals (1st, 2nd or 3rd class) I completed BasicMed today as part of my annual physical. No more yearly sleep apnea SI hoops to jump through for me.

I need to do that, but I havent yet. Is it easy?

I'm also hoping the VA will get with the program and allow us to use BasicMed for GiBill training instead of a Class2 so I can finish commercial and do CFI with the money.....

It was SUPER easy. My doctor looked at the AOPA paperwork I printed out for him and immediately signed it.

Very easy to find the info you need:

https://www.faa.gov/licenses_certificates/airmen_certification/basic_med/

https://www.eaa.org/eaa/pilots/pilot-medical-resources/eaa-basicmed-resource-center

Also, a search in VAF will yield much info.
