canadian ATP reciprocal exam; FAA to Canadian

[jetmandlite]

i'm a 59 year old pilot with a US FAA ATP
to fly beyond age 60 other carriers are demanding that your license be from a country that has the benefit of flying after 60 "not the USA"

clearly it has been established that the USA and Canada have a 20 question exam that allows for a recioprocal ATP .... is there anyone on this site that has done taken that exam and is there a study guide to taking the exam , much like there is one in the USA .... e-mail me [email protected]


thanks

Further.............. is there a time limit to getting all "licensed up" Canadian style??
i.e. would it be any use attempting this, say, 2 month's after turning 60, thus effectively no longer FAA part 121 qualified due to age being over 60?

Do a search on http://www.avcanada.ca.

Lots of info on going CDN to FAA with appropriate links. Probably a call to FAA HQ at Oke City wouldn't go amiss either.

I can't be more specific as I'm looking into doing it the other way. From what I gather you need a letter from the respective Licensing authority (FAA/TC) attesting to the virtuousness of your issued license. You then write the exam, then present yourself at your nearest neighbourhood FSDO/TC Regional Office, et voila.

Also check the Canada forum on Pprune.

I'm currently in the process of doing the conversion right now and I've run into some issues... see my other thread:
