Pilot Medical Guardian has launched a new application for iPhone, iPad, and Mac designed to help pilots organize and track their FAA medical certification records.
The software supports pilots flying under first-, second-, or third-class medical certificates, as well as BasicMed. The app monitors expiration dates under 14 CFR 61.23, tracks BasicMed online courses and physical exams, and logs medications and physician visits in a single location, according to company officials.
When preparing to renew, a built-in Safari extension autofills Items 17 and 19 on FAA MedXPress directly from the pilot’s saved records, while preparing saved Item 18 responses for review prior to submission.
For aviators flying under a Special Issuance, the app enables users to build condition-specific checklists based on published FAA requirements, store medical letters and test results, track correspondence, and receive alerts when regulatory requirements change. The platform also incorporates the FAA’s full Aviation Medical Examiner directory.
According to company officials, all personal records remain stored locally on the user’s device and private iCloud account.
“I got tired of retyping the same MedXPress answers every cycle, so I built something that remembers them,” said developer Ryan Colby.
Pilot Medical Guardian is available as a free download, with an optional Guardian Pro subscription available for $29.99 a year.
