Canada The great white north. A BIG country with few people and LOTS of aviation.

canadian ATP reciprocal exam; FAA to Canadian

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 address]


thanks
peter

Canada- "Lifeline to the over 60 Pilot"

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?

Thumbs up

Gents

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.

Regards

Muddy
