Our Team
Dr Ian Ramsay
After graduating in medicine from the University of Liverpool in 1975 Ian started flying at Liverpool (Speke) Airport before moving to Herefordshire to complete his GP training.
He gained his PPL at Shobdon Airfield in 1977 and then enjoyed an all too brief period glider tugging out of Talgarth in the Black Mountains. He became a Principal in General Practice at Cheltenham in 1979 and has flown regularly from Gloucester Airport since then.
He has been an active member of the Gloster Aero Group syndicate since 1981 and has flown a variety of single engine types both in the UK and USA. He has been conducting CAA medical examinations for over 30 years and has served as an FAA Senior Medical Examiner since 1996.
He retired from NHS practice in June 2012 to focus on aviation medicine.
