Hate to say it but he's right. Sounds like there's a reason they're open to hiring someone who's not current and doesn't have a medical. Caveat Emptor, I wouldn't touch it unless the pay is remarkable and you're willing to suffer the butt-pain as you go from 0-60 in 4 seconds knowledge-wise. Make sure you have a spare passport and a wad of cash at all times.
