If you are fit and healthy, your GP can do the Class 2 basic very easily.
You're right - right now I don't have any need for a full Class 2 and the basic class 2 would suffice. No endorsements or planes more than 2000kg. I initially thought about only getting a basic class 2 BUT I'm still relatively new on my aviation journey and who know where I may get to within the next couple of years - regarding other ratings etc. I'm not far off turning 40 and I figured it would be worth my while getting full class 2 which right now will last 4 years. If I get it in say a year - it'll only last 2 years.
I don't know if my thought process makes sense or whether I shouldn't even bother with a full class 2 until I actually need it - even if by then I'll have to renew in 2 years.
