Medical for conversion

[nikhilheb]

I am about to return to the US for a couple of weeks for recency. Scrutinizing the flowchart given for conversion by the DGCA, i found that it asks for a class I medical from issuing state as well. Now, I have a class II FAA medical and a Class I indian medical. Is that enough, or is a class I FAA medical also necessary? Has anyone here converted their license with a class II foreign medical?

Thank you.

@nikhil
point A 2 on the conversion flowchart clearly says "Valid foreign Class-I Medical Assessment from State of issue"
so i suggest u get your class I done and not take any chances.. & getting a FAA class I is quite hassle free as compared to the indian class I :}
