Has anybody successfully converted a JAA (UK Issued) class one medical to a JAA (Irish) Class one? With out going through the whole Initial rigmarole again, I have an e-mail from the medical centre in Dublin telling me that my CAA Issued Class one is valid in Ireland (I told them I wanted to get an Irish commercial). But also I have a friend that just went through a few months ago (with a CAA medical) and he had to get an Irish one before he could do any flight training? Any help/advise greatly appreciated

AFAIK a JAR medical is a JAR medical and should be valid with either your UK issued JAA licence or your Irish issued JAA licence.... BUT... there is a stipulation in the regs that the medical must be done in the country of initial training.
So if you are embarking on a flight training course, you will need to do the medical in Dublin.
Look at www.jaa.nl for JAR-OPS 3

I'm sure there is a reciprocal arrangement.

Thanks MK, maybe that was just for renewal though and not initial medical?. I sent a query to IAA to ask if i can do the medical in the matter and below is the response i got
"Since you hold a CAA licence, I am afraid the query has to be answered by the UK Civil Aviation Authority."
