parking Posted March 20, 2020 Posted March 20, 2020 Hi all. I was on my way to my part 2 and just informed by the local aeromed folks all initial physicals are temporarily halted for now (for obvious reasons). Flight nurse stated even if they could complete the paperwork, Rucker will not be working or approving initial 1Ws. Seems like certain departments/specialties are shutting down too. Obviously this is only one/two sources of information, but not surprised. I want to see if this is the case for anyone else. If so, hopefully this can be a thread to push info out when they resume.

Trinidad Posted March 21, 2020 Posted March 21, 2020 Same with me, was told they would call back when they start doing Initials again. I’m gonna call back the aviation clinic on Monday and see if they have a time frame of when they’ll start doing them again, hopefully soon. Quote
SLEDGE HAMMER Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 Anyone able to confirm if Rucker has stopped processing already submitted physicals?? Quote

parking Posted April 10, 2020 Author Posted April 10, 2020 Local AAF aeromed says no initials until 30 May now, still subject to change with things going on of course. Recruiter says they can put in a waiver if I wanted to be in the May board since I already had a previous physical, but I think that will be unlikely. Quote
Trinidad Posted May 4, 2020 Posted May 4, 2020 Random question, I know that 2808 and 2807-1 are the forms needed for initial flight physicals, are there any other additional forms that need to be filled out by the optometrist or dental before presenting to flight surgeon? Quote
parking Posted May 5, 2020 Author Posted May 5, 2020 This is for part 1 right? If you are AD (or under military dental in any way), the 2808 and 2807-1 should be it assuming no waivers (such as a CRS/PRK). If you are civ, there may be an additional DD2813 for the dental to be done by your civilian dentist. Quote
parking Posted May 5, 2020 Author Posted May 5, 2020 According to FRAGO 24/EXORD 144-20, initial flight physicals are back on. Quote
Travis3311 Posted May 14, 2020 Posted May 14, 2020 How is this affecting people submitting for July board? I'd imagine there would be fewer 153A packets being submitted due to the inability to complete the physical? Quote
