Quote AOPA USA:-
“ Nearly 80,000 pilots have qualified to fly safely under BasicMed since its inception in 2017. “
This would represent a huge benefit to pilots in terms the previous costly and time consuming medical examinations that pertained under the old regulations.
Without any idea of actual medical examination costs in the USA, let’s assume an average saving of $500 multiplied by 80,000 that equals $40million.
With any reasonable system in place the last 20 years I personally could have been $10,000 in front.
