1st Class Medical
This may be a dumb question. My buddy I and were in a argument the otherday. The topic was HIV testing to get a 1st class medical. He claimed that to get a 1st class medical, a person had to get a HIV test. Is this true? I told him that he was wrong; he insisted that he was right. We looked on the internet and couldnt find anything. Anybody know for sure?

We have a $100 bet on this, Ive looked through the FAR's and cant find anything. I think that I might be a $100 richer:D

I've only taken Class I medicals since 1981, but never has blood been drawn by the AME.

I have a 1st class medical and have never been given any kind of a blood test, only the starndard turn and cough, vision, hearing, ect.

Bloodwork
The company I work for punctures us twice a year.
To add insult to injury we have to pay for the JCAB physical. $303, plus any extras such as a PSA or FAA medical certificate. We do a mandatory drug screen too. No HIV testing that I'm aware of. Just coughed up 417 bucks on the 12th in Anchorage. |
Military personnel get an annual HIV test, maybe someone got confused about that. And I wouldn't be surprised if some of the foreign folks get an HIV.
