Application Review
This section provides guidance for the completion of Items 59-64 of FAA Form 8500-8. The Examiner is responsible
for conducting the examination. However, he or she may delegate to a qualified physician's assistant, nurse,
aide, or laboratory assistant the testing required for Items 49-58. Regardless of who performs the tests, the
Examiner is responsible for the accuracy of the findings, and this responsibility
may not be
delegated.
After all routine evaluations and tests are completed, the Examiner should make a complete review of
FAA Form 8500-8. If the form is complete and accurate, the Examiner should add final comments, make
qualification decision statements, and sign the declaration. The medical history page of FAA Form 8500-8
must be completed in the handwriting of and signed and dated by the applicant. Upon completion of the
physical examination, the entire FAA Form 8500-8, Items 1 through 64,
must be electronically
transmitted to the FAA.
