Okinawa Medical
 
I'm out here on Kadena on the island of Okinawa and my 1st class medical expires while on deployment. Anyone know a doc who can issue a 1st class medical out here?

Thanks!

I would think the mgr at the aeroclub at Kadena would have contact info for an FAA doc nearby.

If you can't get what you want, hop on a SPACE A flight to Korea and knock one out, there's about a dozen ME's with an FAA certificate in the Seoul area. Specifically at Ansan medical center. His name is Dr. Kwak (I'm sure he's still there). I got a 1st class from him back in 2008 while I was stationed there. PM me for more details if needed. Space A flights to Osan are very common from Kadena.

OR

Just go to the aero club as mentioned above. The guy running it (if he's still there) is a younger guy and is very knowledgeable and helpful. I took a SPACE A flight to Okinawa from Korea to do my Instrument ticket because the only FAA DE in the entire pacific was at Kadena. Pretty good experience.

Best of luck.
