Darf man als Pilot Plomben haben?

Hello,

There are many rumors on the Internet and also on every topic. However, in aviation: “Stick on the facts!”

And we have them again, our three problems:

1) Why do you ask here? GF is also an internet platform on which rumours, speculations, mutations broil on many topics.

2) Have you at least researched the corresponding answers to the topic at GF? Finally, this question has been asked many times – of course, always with contradictory answers. So who do you trust now?

3) So how about an info from people who really need to know, the aero-medical pilot?

Internet competence is invoked by so many politicians. So let’s look for a fix at the LBA (Airport Federal Office) and look into the list of centers that are allowed to carry out a first examination for pilots. There is address and telephone number, so just call and ask. One of the centers is, by the way, the former FMI of the Bw in Fürstenfeldbruck (the LBA list is not up-to-date), today “Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrtmedizin der Bundeswehr” (ZentrLuRMedLw) in Cologne (which also make civil investigations). You can ask how it looks at the Bw in fighter pilots and clear all the mutations.

The result is then set as a tip – of course with the appropriate reference – here. I can calm you down: The EU regulation on flying personnel, the EU-VO 1178/2011, explicitly does not provide any information on the condition of teeth, but … it means under

MED.B.080 Neck, nose and ears (for finen on page 2011R1178 — DE — 08.04.2012 — 000.003 — 221)

“a” Applicants neither congenital nor acquired active or chronic functional disorders or diseases of ears, nose, nasal cavity or throat, including oral cavity, Teeth and throat head, as well as no surgical or trauma sequences have may affect the safe exercise of the rights associated with the applicable licence(s).’

So only the assessment by the flyer physician remains, no matter what the GF experts say or advise.

Oh, yes, here is the complete reference (I must adhere to my own claim;-)

COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 1178/2011 of 3 November 2011 laying down technical rules and administrative procedures relating to civil aviation flying personnel …’ This is the German translation to find at LBA
