Professional pilots face unique demands in their work and personal life that affect their medical certification and personal wellbeing. This guide has been created by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), in cooperation with IFALPA, the International Air Transport Association (IATA), and other experts, to inform pilots on known health risk factors and how to reduce them.

Fitness to Fly – A Medical Guide for Pilots is a preventative-medicine handbook that is easy-to-read, motivating and educational, with engaging content, graphics and charts to empower you to limit your health risks and set your own goals and strategies to maintain fitness to fly and a balanced lifestyle.

Hindsight 28 on “Change” (Winter 2018)

Changes in aviation – in organisations, in the industry and in society in general – affect us all, and can affect the safety of air traffic management. The pace of change is increasing. Change is necessary to adapt to the changing world, and we need to adapt to these changes as individuals, teams, and organisations.

In this issue (https://bit.ly/2UnSraA), we have articles from the front-line, as well as from safety, legal, leadership, human factors and psychology specialists. All HindSight articles are written for the primary readers of the magazine: air traffic controllers and professional pilots, and are hopefully of interest to all others who support operational work.

“Our current systems, our current ways of working, will not be able to cope with these traffic levels. At the same time, we are seeing new types of traffic – not just remotely piloted but also, for example very high altitude aircraft. So we have no choice but to change,” – Eamonn Brennan, EUROCONTROL Director General.
