Anyone know the reg about being sick?

[OCP]

Specifically about a crew member not being allowed to operate a trip if they are sick.

 

[Cpt Oveur]

Have you ever looked on the back of your medical certificate?

 

[OCP]

Is there anything that applies to the FA?

§ 61.53 Prohibition on operations during medical deficiency.
Back to Pilot FAQ Index

(a) Operations that require a medical certificate. Except as provided for in paragraph (b) of this section, a person who holds a current medical certificate issued under part 67 of this chapter shall not act as pilot in command, or in any other capacity as a required pilot flight crewmember, while that person:

(1) Knows or has reason to know of any medical condition that would make the person unable to meet the requirements for the medical certificate necessary for the pilot operation; or

(2) Is taking medication or receiving other treatment for a medical condition that results in the person being unable to meet the requirements for the medical certificate necessary for the pilot operation.

(b) Operations that do not require a medical certificate. For operations provided for in §61.23(b) of this part, a person shall not act as pilot in command, or in any other capacity as a required pilot flight crewmember, while that person knows or has reason to know of any medical condition that would make the person unable to operate the aircraft in a safe manner.

(c) Operations requiring a medical certificate or a U.S. driver's license. For operations provided for in §61.23(c), a person must meet the provisions of—

(1) Paragraph (a) of this section if that person holds a valid medical certificate issued under part 67 of this chapter and does not hold a current and valid U.S. driver's license.

(2) Paragraph (b) of this section if that person holds a current and valid U.S. driver's license.

67.101 (First class) to determine if your sickness forces you to now look at 61.53.

Did you not read? Looking for an FA because the company is going after her.

Going after her?? If she was really sick and they're going after her, I'd simply advise her to fire you and get a real attorney.

 

[SLUF4]

ask her to look in her FAM too-maybe there's something in there about it?

Hahaha! That made my day.

 

[DGdaPilot]

Call the FSDO. Don't ask FlightInfo.

 

[say again]

Ahh, the regional BS!! She'd probably be better off getting fired, the sue for wrongful termination.
