You couldn’t make this up !
I was relocated by my company to Spain shortly after the Brexit debacle ( sadly no time to SOLI) so I’m now going through the agony of trying to convert a UK EASA license into a AESA license believe me it’s a nightmare ! The latest is the classic catch 22 provided UK CAA.
So applied to get my license address updated......seems sensible seeing as I’m no longer in UK, plus i also need the license for the conversion. Of course I have a valid Class 2 which is now issued by AESA, since the state that issues the license also has to hold the medical records....but wait up.....CAA is refusing to issue a license address change without a valid UK medical ....Doh ! Don’t tell me I’m going to have to go back to UK to do a medical exam I don’t need and cannot use, just so that the address on my license can be changed !!
why didn’t UK just stay in EASA ?
