    For the HIMS AME Pilots travel to find

    Pilots with complex medicals will travel to find you.
    Are they finding you first?

    We pull live FAA data every month, identify pilots within 200 miles approaching FAA medical renewal, and mail your postcard directly to them. Your staff handles patients. We handle everything else.

    In a typical HIMS market, ~400 pilots within 200 miles are approaching FAA medical renewal every 30 days.

    Trusted HIMS AMEs are hard to find.
    Your practice shouldn't be.

    Pilots navigating complex medical histories don't have many options. When renewal approaches, they begin searching for a trusted HIMS AME. Your postcard puts your name in their hands before that search begins.

    The average HIMS market produces 600–1,000 pilot renewal opportunities every month — whether or not an AME is reaching them.

    How it works

    Set up once.

    Runs every month.

    We handle the data, printing, and mailing. You control the campaigns.

    01 — ONBOARDING

    One call. We configure your 200-mile radius, certificate class targeting, and renewal window. We design a custom HIMS postcard built around your practice. You approve it once. We handle everything after that. You approve it once — it runs forever.

    02 — EVERY MONTH

    Every month, we query live FAA data for pilots within your radius approaching medical renewal. Your postcard is printed, addressed, and mailed automatically. Nothing enters your workflow.

    You do nothing.

    03 — RESULTS

    Pilots searching for a trusted HIMS specialist find your practice first. Complex cases, special issuance renewals, pilots who've been grounded — these are patients who need exactly what you offer. Your postcard arrives before their search begins. New pilots enter this window every month — it compounds over time.

    Your regional HIMS footprint

    One practice.
    A 200-mile reputation.

    Your HIMS designation isn't local. Your visibility shouldn't be either.

    Why regional reach matters for HIMS

    Most HIMS AMEs rely on word of mouth and referrals to fill their schedule. That works — until it doesn't. PlaneLists builds a systematic regional presence so pilots approaching renewal find your name consistently, every month.

    Your reputation travels. Your outreach should too.

    Why pilots travel for HIMS AMEs
    ~250
    HIMS AMEs serve the entire United States.

    Your specialty is rare — and pilots will travel to find you. They will drive or fly hours to get to the right specialist.

    A pilot navigating a substance history, a special issuance, or a complex medical situation isn't searching locally. They're searching for the right doctor. Your postcard puts your name in their hands before that search begins.

    What's included

    Full service.
    Your staff stays focused on patients.

    Everything your practice needs to reach pilots systematically — with nothing to manage on your end.

    #1 —Design
    Custom HIMS postcard

    A custom HIMS postcard built around your credentials, specialty, and practice — not a template. Refreshed every six months to maintain relevance.

    #2 —Automation
    Runs without you

    We pull fresh FAA data on the same date every month. No dashboard to check, no campaign to trigger, no staff time required.

    #3 —Reach
    200-mile radius

    Standard AME campaigns target 50–100 miles. Your HIMS designation justifies a 200-mile radius — and the patient travel behavior to match.

    #4 —Reporting
    Regional intelligence

    Every month, a regional intelligence summary arrives in your inbox. Which renewal windows were targeted. How many pilots reached. Where demand is concentrating.

    #5 —Consultation
    Quarterly market review

    Quarterly, we review your regional market with you — renewal trends, campaign performance, targeting adjustments. A managed specialist market review conducted by people who understand HIMS economics.

    #6 —Exclusivity
    Protected market access

    Once your area is active, we do not onboard competing HIMS practices targeting the same regional pilot market through PlaneLists. Your regional visibility is protected.

    Your next step

    We'll come prepared with your pilot data. No slides, no pitch.
