Obtaining and FAA class 1 medical as a foreigner

Hi All,

I would like to apply to get my class 1 medical in the states, however I am British.

Has any one else on here done this? If so can you talk me through the process, time frames, what I need to do etc?

I would really appreciate some advice.

there are plenty of faa medical examiners in the UK. . I don't recall the process for an initial (mine was a long time ago) but it won't be onerous. Online registration, an online form (google: medexpress) , your passport and the fee is probably all it takes. The receptionist / website of most practices will have the process to follow.

ahh thanks. I didn't realise it might be possible to do it from the UK, that would make life a lot easier. Thanks for the reply.
