Flylink Aviation College requires all students to have a valid CASA Flight Crew Class I Medical Certificate from course commencement to course graduation date.

CASA Flight Crew Class I Medical Certificate Examination must be conducted by a CASA Designated Aviation Medical Examiner (DAME) and a CASA Designated Aviation Ophthalmologist (DAO) or Credentialed Optometrists (CO). The certificate, once issued, is valid for one year.

The cost of a routine CASA Flight Crew Class I Medical Certificate Initial Examination that requires no more than what is required by CASA for a regular person is approximately $800.00AUD.

The cost of a routine CASA Flight Crew Class I Medical Certificate Renewal Examination that requires no more than that is required by CASA for a regular person is approximately $300.00AUD.

These fees are payable directly by the student to the relevant people and/or organisation (i.e. DAME, CO and/or CASA) and not to or through Flylink Aviation College. Hence, Flylink Aviation College has to influence these indicative costs.
