Is the Faa ppl acepted for flying in Europe and if so is it an easier qualification to obtain?
From what I've read it seems to be, but would be nice to clarify.
It is absolutely not easier to obtain an FAA PPL. In fact, i would say that it's easier to obtain a CAA/JAR FCL licence. I know, i have done both.

I'm now working on my FAA-IR, the written material might be less, the practical level is very high, you end up being a descent pilot with FAA licences.
