| Hi folks, I have an update about my case, got a reply from Mr Courtois (DGAC- DCS Direction du Personnel Navigant). I hold a French PPl, am a foreign citizen living abroad and wanting to exercise my rights abroad. Under Jar-Fcl regulations I undertook a FI(A) course in an FTO in Italy after gaining the theoretical JAR Italian CPL. Have a freshly gained Jar FI(A) rating. As I have been anticipated, it will not be possible to have this newly acquired rating endorsed on my JAR-Ppl. Under EASA I was told by this person that they would have to endorse such a rating, because then it will be binding... So this is it, time and money down the drain, a lot of it. Though the FI(A) course in some respects was interesting, Can't say the same about the Theoretical Jar/Cpl. 80% of it is brain washing crap nobody will ever use.. Beware anytime you embark in an enterprise involving Caa's of different european JAR-FCL members. Enjoy flying as much I as I've been doing it for 28 years... It's not my work I do it for fun and would have loved to help other's for free!!! |
