Ans:-

Becoming a Commercial Pilot License (CPL) student is exciting but one thing everything pilot aspirant must prepare for is the medical fitness test. Before you start your CPL course the aviation authority in India DGCA (Directorate General of Civil Aviation) requires you to pass a strict health check called the Class 1 Medical Examination.

Why Medical Tests Are Needed

Carrying out a detailed medical check ensures you are physically and mentally fit to fly aircraft safely. Airlines and flying schools want pilots who can handle long hours stressful situations and work under pressure. A strong medical profile is critical for this demanding career.

The Class 1 Medical includes many tests:

  • Vision Check - You must have clear sight. Many candidates can use glasses or contact lenses if their vision meets standards.

  • Hearing & Balance Test - Good hearing and balance are essential for pilots.

  • General Health Check - Height weight heart lungs blood pressure and blood work are checked.

  • Color Vision Test - Pilots should not be color blind because colors are vital in cockpit instruments.

These tests are usually done at DGCA approved medical centers. If you pass, you get a Class 1 Medical Certificate, which is mandatory before you can start your CPL flying training and later before applying to airlines.

Why Early Medical Testing Matters

Knowing your medical status early helps you avoid surprises later in the course. If you fail or need further checks, you can fix issues before investing time and money in CPL training. This connects directly to Why is knowing the real cost important before joining CPL While most students focus on flying hours and school fees medical tests and renewals are also part of the overall expense. Medical costs may not be huge, but they are still a required cost that needs planning along with tuition exams and living expenses.
