License revalidation/EASA/medical questions?
I have a JAR SEP license valid until 2020. I need to revalidate by the 30th Sept 2013 for my SEP, which I can do here in the US at a few schools. However, what happens on the 24th of July is that my medical expires. Since I don't fly in Europe much anymore, I'm not particularly keen on keeping my Euro medical going as it's a hassle and has to be renewed every 2nd year now that I'm over 40. However, I do want to keep my EASA license current. So my question is this:
1. Can I renew my SEP without a current medical?
2. Can I update to an EASA license and have CAA send it to me here in the US, or does it have to go to a UK address?
3. Any chance I can get the MEP onto my EASA license with the new rules by experience/checkride? I really don't want to have to do an initial 10 hour at an ATO in some godforsaken Duchess all over again if I can avoid it.
Thanks.
