Abstract: The Office of Aerospace Medicine (AVS/AAM) is developing a pilot medical disclosure decision making model in to support current and future safety risk assessments. Following the Mental Health Aviation Rulemaking Committee's recommendation, AVS/AAM and the Office of Safety Standards (AFS) conducted a joint safety risk assessment on pilot medical non-disclosure. The assessment identified the need for a validated model of pilot medical disclosure decision-making to better estimate safety risks. A one-time, voluntary online survey will be administered using the Qualtrics platform. The survey includes 67 items and is expected to take up to 15 minutes to complete. All responses will remain confidential and reported in a manner that protects participant anonymity.
