After inpatient aircrews of Chinese Army and Air Force are treated at local hospitals, their health status will be evaluated. If it is aeronautically adaptable, the conclu- sion would be flying qualification; if it may impact the flight safety or the flight environment may aggravate the illness, the conclusion would be flight suspension, and then the patient should be forwarded from local hospital to our hospital. After detailed examination, if the conditions of flying personnel are considered not qualified for flight, the conclusion of flying disqualification should be made finally. The present study was conducted to provide epidemiological data on flying disqualification of all flying personnel, including pilots, navigators, radiomen, and flight engineers.
