Therefore, if you are doing the SOLI process you will need to transfer your medical and your PPL licence (you cannot hold a licence from an authority if the medicals are transfered to another authority). I am going to train in DFAS and I used to have an EASA Spanish PPL but I did the SOLI process and I changed to UK (the UK CAA is easier to deal with and more flexible).

For the SOLI process you need:

- Certified copy of your licence, medical and passport from a UK examiner.
- fill the required forms.
- contact your NAAs and the UK caa.
- and a lot of patience.

Good luck!
Thanks for the info can you just explain what do you mean with having a "certified copy of licence medical and passport from a UK examiner" ?
Do I need to give these documents to a UK examiner to certify them first and then I can give them to the UK CAA?
