On a practical level, the consequences of these constraints on pre-existing pathologies as well as the conditions of medical aptitude for piloting aircraft, defined by European authorities, are studied in all specialties (cardiovascular, respiratory, endocrinological, renal, digestive, neurological, psychological, gynecological, urological, dermatological, orthopedic, ENT, ophthalmological).
