Default 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.

This might help...

Actually, this comes from the FAA AME database. It's world-wide.
