MedXpress Site Down?

[Marauder]

I'm having difficulties logging into Medxpress all day. Anyone else having issues logging in? Could someone try it and see if it works for you?

Not working in NJ...

maybe they just don't want us to  pursue the class III medical anymore....

Consider it a sign from above.  

Best regards,

I'd be excited to hear that considering my medical is tomorrow morning. Thanks for checking Anthony.

Thanks Tom. Makes me wonder what is going on. I just read that the Customs systems were having issues as well. Someone doing some hacking?

Also nothing from TX.

I hope your AME is different from mine. I don't think my guy will do one without a Medexpress filled out. I would call before I went.

Russians?

Thanks Don. It's still down this morning. I will call before I head out.

Hopefully it will get up soon, I filled mine out Thursday my Ame wouldn't set up the appt until I had the confirmation number. Wikileaks's was on tv this morning we should have asked Julian 

[carqwik]

My medical is due by EOW...thanks for the heads up.  My AME also requires that confirmation number.

Had the same problem over the weekend, and is still down as of 10am EST.

My AME appt is next week Monday so i do have a few days, frustrating though.

The saga continues. At least now there is a message indicating a problem.

Wasn't me! The FAA Medxpress site is still down as of 5 PM EST.

The FAA online medical certificate application system, MedXPress https://medxpress.faa.gov/medxpress/ is not functioning and the FAA Help Desk is not responding to inquires about it. This precludes pilots from making a new medical application until the system is functioning again. 

AMAS leadership has been in communication with the Federal Air Surgeon who says that they are actively working on the problem, but do not have an estimate as to when it will be resolved. We will be notified as soon as he knows and will disseminate updates as soon as they are available. Key points regarding the current status: 

• Pilots who submitted their applications last week before the MedXPress outage can still have their examinations processed by their AME’s as this is a different system. 
• Pilots cannot use and AME’s may not accept old paper applications for airman medical certification, FAA Form 8500-8 
• Duration of current medical certification cannot be extended as this is set by federal law. 

We will update you promptly with changes in the status of this situation. Please contact AMAS for any specific questions.

Another update. The system came up (for me anyways) around 5:50 PM EST. I did the quickest 8500 entry I ever have done. Good thing I had few doctor visits and nothing to report. Hope it works for the rest of you.

Great.

I hope it keeps going. I hate to think about the poor AMEs who would be unable to earn a living while it was down.
