TY - JOUR PY - 1975// TI - Medical flying fitness--a routine affair--but who examines and assesses psychic health JO - Aviation, space, and environmental medicine A1 - Goerres, H. P. SP - 953 EP - 957 VL - 46 IS - 7 N2 - The regular physiological check-up of pilots pretends to be a thorough diagnosis and yet the psychological aspects are ignored almost completely sometimes. As an excuse for this procedure, it is stated that in his psychological aptitude test prior to flying training, the pilot had already been classified as suitable and fit. It is hoped that this paper will show that the flying fitness examination procedure presently oriented towards the physical status of the individual is by no means sufficient to determine the actual degree of flying fitness.
