Article 54 Medical requirements for licence holdersI1
United Kingdom
The holder of a licence granted under article 51, other than a Flight Radiotelephony Operator’s Licence, must not perform any of the functions to which the licence relates unless it includes an appropriate valid medical certificate.
Every applicant for or holder of a licence granted under article 51 must, upon such occasions as the Governor requires, submit to a medical examination by a person approved by the Governor, either generally or in a particular case or class of cases, who must make a report to the Governor in such form as the Governor requires.
The Governor or any person approved by the Governor as competent to do so may issue a medical certificate to the effect that the holder of the licence meets the requirements specified in respect of the medical certificate.
The certificate issued under paragraph (3) is valid for the period specified and is deemed to form part of the licence.
