When they say Class 2 medical, they mean EASA (European Aviation Safety
Agency) Class 2.
Here is a link to the UK requirements:
http://www.caa.co.uk/default.aspx?ca...=90&pageid=528

The medical takes around 40 minutes to complete and costs (for me in the
UK) around £85, say $120, or every second year when you also need an ECG
around £150.

The EASA Class 2 standard is common across all of Europe so any Class 2
gained in Europe will suffice.
There may also be rated Aviation Medical Examiners in the USA?

Good luck,
Roy

Thanks in advance for any assistance.
