Well, the medicals are a story in themselves Miss. Two of us were in a position to be able to fly to TNK very early am, to pick up a couple of pax who wanted to depart later in the day..... things were looking good.... then for the medicals came the $200 EACH price tag (what, telephone numbers!)........ things all of a sudden not so good! Then pax rang the day before charter and asked if could leave TNK by 9am..... Yep, we can do that!
So, still no medicals, we rang RFDS @ AYE, but they weren't going to put 3 of us through in one day, or even consider doing them in AS..... "please, please, pretty please?"........ "OK, but you'll have to drive down here........"
Like a shot, we were there........
And at much less than HALF what (N_C, what's his name?) was wanting for a bare bones class one med.
Now Dr Ross Peterkin ( the Doc who did mine), is doing them is Alice at the moment for at least the next 6 wks....... Oh well, that might have helped a month ago.....
Thanks for your advice back then Miss, that helped a lot! Cheers!
