Thank you all for such quick reply,
it seems that it is easier than I even thought.

Regarding my situation, we use to have Ministry of Sea, Transport and Infrastructure regulating our licenses.
It was a nightmare, when military pilot cams to get his hours from military log book transfered to civil one they would refuse, every time with different crazy explanation: we dont have Mi-17 in civil registry, no MiG-21 in registry, it is not regulated with Air Force, the person who needs to do that is somewhere else...and if one was persistent enough they would transfer only such amount of hours that military pilot would need to do all modules of training, from doesn't matter how many hours one would get maybe 100... it was personal decision with no clear rules.

Then we got Croatian Civil Aviation Authority and JAR, and everybody were happy...for one week.
In JAR it is stated that national CAA can accept military licenses and develop some form of conversion into civilian like UK CAA does, well our bright civil servants decided that it can, but doesn't have to, so they decided not to!

I got my ICAO CPL(H) in one neighbor state. Now they adopted JAR so to renew it I will also convert it to JAR CPL(H), which is not a problem, just expanse

Regarding my hours in Mi-17, with right passport (US) and 10-15h in Mi-17 sky is not a limit.
