Aerospace Neuropsychology and the FAA
Reasons for Referral
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) maintains stringent physical and mental health criteria, and there are problems and conditions defined in the Federal Air Regulations with which pilots may not fly. Common referrals include pilots who have been prescribed one of several SSRI antidepressant medications, HIV-seropositive pilots, pilots recovering from alcohol/substance abuse or dependence, pilots recovering from a neurological condition such as a mild head injury or cerebrovascular condition, and applicants with a history of ADHD or who have been prescribed medications used to treat ADHD. In other instances, testing may be required due to problems that became apparent during pilot training, upgrading, transitioning between aircraft, or during proficiency training.
