to visit the nearest aviation medical examiner and other situations.
And the concepts behind BasicMed
have gained traction. Civil Air Patrol volunteers are able to fly under the regulations,
and BasicMed pilots are now allowed to
fly in the Bahamas. The United Kingdom
took steps to improve its medical process in
2016, and pilots there now can self-assess
their fitness to fly. And Australia now has
introduced a medical that allows pilots to
visit a general practitioner instead of an
aviation medical examiner.
In anticipation of pilots returning to
aviation, AOPA's You Can Fly program
ramped up its Rusty Pilots seminars,
designed to help pilots transition back
to the left seat after an absence. AOPA's

Pilot Information Center, which fields
questions about topics as diverse as flying
internationally and buying an airplane,
was flooded with calls about BasicMed.
The new regulations were clearly releasing pent-up demand for flying.
AOPA's Rusty Pilots program hosted
266 seminars in 2017, compared to 156 in
2016, and some 1,800 participants returned
to flying in 2017 after attending one of the
seminars. Efforts such as You Can Fly,
AOPA's multifaceted approach to making
flying more accessible and affordable, work
in concert with AOPA's advocacy. Add to
that more promising career prospects for
aspiring professional pilots, and the future
looks bright.
We know that 2017 was the first year
since 2010 that the total number of U.S.
active pilots increased, and certainly
BasicMed has helped. But as fly-in season
starts and pilots flock to aviation events
around the country, you might not need
the numbers to tell you that.
