JAA Medical - Please recommend a place in London
 

Fellow pilots, I currently live in the states and I need to get my initial JAA class 1 medical done soon. Could anyone please recommend a place that I could go to near London? I will likely be flying into London Heathrow airport. What is the cost, how long will it take, and please provide a website if you know one. Finally, will I be able to renew the medical in the US or is it only renewed in the UK? Thank you for all of your responses and help.

ONCALL!

I think in the UK you can only do a class 1 medical at Gatwick, not sure though.

cheers, I looked it up and know what to do. thank you!

hello
If you have never had any JAA medical, you'll need to pass the JAA initial class I. the only place as far as I know in the UK is in the Gatwick medical center. The cost is 330£. It takes half a day to be completed. If you have had already a JAA class I , and you're looking to renew it or revalidate it, you may find many AMC's around london area. check out this link:
