Ron...In the past any licensed physician was able to perform the DOT or FAA physical, as long as they filled out the necessary Doc's.

Is this a new requirement by the insurance co?

Brucie, I really don't know everything about this. Just that I did it in 95. I called the local private airport and got the name of a local Dr. that could give the exam. Now these doctors can be found on the internet.

I don't know how the Drs become certified. I guess the apply to the FAA.

Yes, our insurance carrier is the one pushing this.

You are misunderstanding my question. I know the insurance co. requires physicals, but does it have to be performed byu a FAA cert. physician? Our DOT form filled out by our family physician was accepted for the last 4 years.

DOT = Department of Transporation would be for the CDL equivelent. So yes, that should work.
