Could anyone tell me what is required to convert a New Zealand commercial licence into a JAA commercial licence?

AA,
U can find all the informations about licence conversions on the CAA website @ the following page :
www.srg.caa.co.uk/pld/fcl/fcl_faq.asp (http://www.srg.caa.co.uk/pld/fcl/fcl_faq.asp)
As far as I know a N-Z CPL is just another non-JAA CPL & won't give U more (or less) exemptions than say an FAA (US) CPL.
U can still convert a non-JAA CPL to a JAA CPL without having to follow the full approved course (but a non-JAA IR cannot B converted to a JAA IR anymore since 01 Feb 2001).
As an example, it took me 3 weeks & about £3,000 (about NZ$ 10,000) to convert my FAA CPL into a UK CPL.
