@Ibra I don't know where you get that information from, but it is incorrect. For a SOLI ALL medical records need to be available to the issuing NAA.

In the past the UK NAA had a medical assessor who was fluent in a few languages and the cases he dealt with were therefore acceptable in the languages concerned. Those were the days...

Yes indeed they have be available to the issuing NAA on transfer (what I wrote) but surely there was no requirement for pilots to get official translations (say “lab analysis” written in French), they likely had fluent AMEs to translate or probably no one cared to read things in the department as things are transferred

Maybe not the case now as you say

Just today I have finally received the confirmation from the CAA that the conversion of my EASA medical is now complete and they will send me my new crispy UK medical by post.

So, that took only 5 months, now I hope the licence conversion should follow shortly (applied in September, and they did all the verifications, but said I needed to have a medical first before they can issue a licence).

Mine only took about 3½ months, but I already had a UK national licence and medical which *may* have helped.
