IMSAFE - Medication

  • A.Whether the aircraft manuals are on board
  • B.Whether any medication being taken could cause drowsiness or other impairing side effects
  • C.Whether the media card has enough space
Correct answer

B. Whether any medication being taken could cause drowsiness or other impairing side effects

Why

Medication is part of IMSAFE because many drugs, including common over-the-counter ones, impair alertness and reaction. A pilot who has not considered a medication's effects is not ready to fly.
