Any Benefit To Renewing Class 1 Medical?
If only requiring class 2 privileges and under 40; is there any benefit to renewing an EASA class 1 medical close to the 60 month expiry date over renewing as a class 2 medical? The validity period for a class 2 according to the CAA medical certificate validity table is 60 months and I know already, though it isn't on that same table, that a class 1 comes with 60 months validity for class 2 privileges. Is the renewal validity period the same for both? They don't even try to make it clear.
