About this list
Ratings come from pilots' reviews. We read each review before it goes on the site, but we can't confirm what it says.
Distances are straight-line, not driving distance, to the office's address or, where the address could not be placed, to the middle of its ZIP code.
Examiners are counted within 35 miles of an airport with a Part 139 certificate or Class B or C airspace, and within 25 miles of any other. Airports are from the FAA's airport data (the NASR 28-day subscription) effective 1 October 2026: public-use airports with a control tower or a Part 139 certificate.
Being listed here does not mean an examiner endorses Crosscheck. Crosscheck is not affiliated with the FAA. Are you one of these examiners? If anything is wrong or missing, write to AME@crosscheckmed.com.
