Welcome
To The
Aeromedical Reference and Waiver
The focus of the Aeromedical Reference and Waiver
Guide is to explain the medical and physical standards
required for aviation duty. As with previous editions,
this reference is published as an supplement to the
Manual of the Medical Department (MANMED) and as a
service to the Aeromedical community. This publication
serves as a guide that reflects MANMED, NATOPS, and
NASA instructions and requirements for flight duty
. It is designed to help the Flight Surgeon and aviation
medical technicians manage the challenging cases and
routine administrative tasks of aviation medicine.
Every effort has been made to ensure the information
presented is in accordance with current aviation medicine
guidelines and MANMED. Some of the standards and policies
published in the Aeromedical Reference and Waiver
Guide (ARWG) reflect forthcoming changes approved
by BUMED or future changes to MANMED. If any information
in the waiver guide appears to conflict with MANMED,
please contact NAMI Code 342 for guidance and clarification
on that subject. Progress, research and changes in
aviation medicine concepts will results in periodic
changes to this guide. Updates to this guide will
be posted on the NAMI Web Page as soon as possible
and when approved by BUMED . Suggestions for revisions,
improvements or changes should be sent to NAMI Code
342 for review and consideration.. The current ARWG
is also available on the Word Wide Web at the BUMED
23 and NAMI Home Page.
