Changes to gain JAA Class 1??

[salin]

Hi all

I need to convert my CASA (non-JAA) Class 1 medical to a JAA Class 1. I was previously told, on good authority, that all I would only need to do is an extended renewal medical examination. After doing a search on here I have found this is the case with others.

However, after looking at the JAA medical website there is a flow chart which indicates I must do an initial exam. Before I ring the AMS and hassle them I was wondering if anyone has converted their Class 1 medical from non-JAA to JAA recently or if there are new requirements for gaining a medical with a foreign CPL/ATPL?


Thanks.
