Commercial
If you fly for hire or reward, then you need a commercial (Class 1 certificate).
To obtain a Class 1 certificate there are different requirements for initial (first) or renewal certificates. This applies whether you are flying a small plane or a jumbo jet and the requirements are the same (details below). Those with an asterisk I can perform; the others I can help arrange. If this is the first time that you have had a NZ Class 1 aviation assessment done by me then there is some information available in the documents section that details requirements etc. For details re timing of tests ie age that they are due, click here
Applying for a Medical Certificate
I encourage pilots to apply for their medical certificate on line using Skycert as this is more secure, faster, and easier for pilots. See details here. The URL is How To Get Your First Medical With SkyCert
Australian Medicals
These are all done on line through their website which means they take a little longer to do. Please contact me for more details
Details re the Making an appointment

- what to bring (e.g. photo identification is required if I have not previously examined you for an aviation certificate; glasses & contacts)
- where to go (Whangarei, Kerikeri) and provide directions to the address
- pre-arrange some of the tests (eg bloods, audiogram) if there is some urgency in completing the examination/assessment
Extending a Certificate
If your certificate is nearing the expiry date, and providing there are no new medical issues, then it is possible to extend your certificate for a maximum of two months (see FAQ for more details)
