I have no problem at all with a requirement to demonstrate I am a competent pilot if I want to fly in UK on my FAA CPL. I simply do not understand the need for a class 2 medical. I have held a class 2 medical but only when needed for the commercial flying I was doing at the time.
in the uk we don’t have a class3 for pilots we have class 2 for ppl and class1 for cpl
