All,This is the part that I dont understand. I have been waiting all of this year until after May 1st to receive my first medical certificate for a private pilots license. I am 63 and for some reason I was told to wait until after the May deadline. (Which I believed rightfully or wrongly)Now, I'm thinking it wouldn't make any difference if had the medical exam last year, tomorrow or May 2ed.I've sent emails to AOPO which I've joined. But I havent received a response back.Thanks in advance for your input.Bill

Anyone that hasn't, like myself, would have to get an FAA Med first.. Kind of ridiculous that I've been flying without a medical for the past 15 years with no problems, but to qualify to NOT need a medical I have to get one? Shame on the EAA and AOPA for this sham.. Just my .02.

The process is fairly simple. Monday I made an appointment with my family physician for Thursday. I also completed the Checklist at https://www.faa.gov/documentLibrary/media/Form/FAA_Form_8700-2_.pdf and printed out the form. Thursday I had the exam by my physician and he completed his part of the checklist form. I then completed the online course at https://basicmedicalcourse.aopa.org/client/app.html?_ga=1.130538639.1236469428.1492193080#/auth/logon and printed out the certificate. Now all I have to do is wait until Monday, May 1, 2017. Good luck.
