Class 1 medical
Generic apology as I am sure this is a repeat thread, although I can't find the answer clearly anywhere.
If my Class 1 expires, it automatically drops to a Class 2.
If I then revalidate my Class 1 later on, what will the costs be? Will it just be the revalidation cost or will it be considered as a brand new initial examination?
Also, does holding a current Class 2 mean the initial Class 1 examination can be shortened and cost me less?
Apologies for the ignorance

The validity dates for Class 1 and Class 2 are printed (or written) on your medical.
If your Class 1 expires for more than 5 years you need a new initial Class 1.
To renew your Class 1 you need a Class 1 medical with an AME (or the CAA)
What the costs are will depend on what you need (which is age dependent and when you last had particular bits done - ECG/Audiogram etc) and where you go.
Different AMEs charge different amounts.
