Under which circumstance must a member’s flying status code be reevaluated?

A member’s flying status code must be reevaluated following a medical disqualification because health and fitness are critical factors in determining a service member's ability to perform tasks related to flying. When a member is medically disqualified, it could be due to a variety of health issues that may impede their ability to operate aircraft safely or handle the associated responsibilities. Therefore, it is crucial to reassess their flying status to ensure they meet the necessary health standards before being cleared for flight duties again.

In contrast, while inactivity, changes in duty station, and even returning from a deployment can influence flying status, they do not necessarily require an immediate reevaluation of the flying status code like a medical disqualification does. These situations may involve other factors or procedures to manage flying status but are not inherently tied to the pressing need for medical assessment that arises after a disqualification.
