Abstract: On February 24–28, 2025, a conference organized by the Air Force Inspectorate in cooperation with the Military Institute of Aviation Medicine and the Military Aviation Medical Board was held at the Military Training and Conditioning Center in Zakopane. The meeting brought together many specialists in the field of military aviation medicine, air force commanders, and military pilots. The aim of the event was to exchange experiences in the field of aviation and aviation medicine, and to identify the challenges facing this field in the context of the needs of the Polish Air Force. The health of pilots and all flight personnel is one of the key pillars of flight safety, which is why planned investments in the modernization of the Air Force should be balanced by an adequately developed healthcare system for aviation personnel.
