The FAA continues to maintain a high standard of scrutiny for pilots with one or more DUI(s). The Aerospace Medical Certification Division (AMCD) limits its focus to the medical circumstances of any incident involving alcohol or drugs that is elevated to the point where law enforcement is involved. Irrespective of the legal implications or outcomes of a case, they are focused on identifying those individuals who may be motivated to understate their relationship with a mind-altering substance. These cases can be incredibly complex and require the experience and resources of organizations such as the Center for Aviation Medicine to ensure satisfactory and desired outcomes. Should you find yourself in these circumstances, be assured that the Center can walk you through this process in a fashion which satisfies the FAA regulations while protecting your medical certificate and career.
