Meanwhile who else is on their second medical extension? Did my medical late April received 2 month extension immediately. No complicating factors.

7 weeks later….
Ring CASA. “It’s still with doc”
Ring Doc. “It’s definitely with CASA
ring CASA. “Nope with doc”
Ring doc (no easy feat to talk direct). “Def with CASA”
Ring CASA. “ we’ll get our DAME support team to reach out to your doc in case he’s having trouble”
Ring doc - “casa called. I’ve extended your medical another 2 months”
Ring CASA - “We’re still experiencing IT issues. We have it. Expect your medical in a week”.
Me - “ but I’ve got to fly internationally on Monday. I’ll be in breach of ICAO legislation if I don’t have a certificate stating my last examination date was within 12 months”.
CASA. “Carry the (expired) original extension that has the examination date, as well as the extension’s extension (that doesn’t have the last examination date).
Me… hmmm


Still waiting.
