hello zzagalo, or re hello from last time

you need at least 2 1/2 experience as an aircraft mech/tech/engineer, and that's your case(faa will need your job tasks to see that you covered all the ATA's)
secondly to be authorised to pass your a&p you will need to be sponsored(US company that you work for or for who you will work when faa a&p in the pocket)
than go to an faa school and take your theory and oral&practical (school + exams is 2 weeks)
hope this helps

hi,

you don't need to work for an american company

C. Foreign nationals located outside the United States may only be certificated if they show, to
the satisfaction of an FAA Inspector, that the certificate is required for the maintenance of U.S.
registered aircraft. To show this need, the applicant must provide:

1. A signed and detailed statement from their employer substantiating the specific types of
maintenance performed and the duration of each.

2. A detailed statement obtained from the foreign airworthiness authority of the country in
which the experience was gained or from an advisor of the International Civil Aviation
Organization that will validate that experience. All information must be signed, dated
originals and traceable to the initiators.

3. An original signed and detailed statement from the owner or operator of a US registered
aircraft substantiating the need for the A&P certificate. The employer must also list the
specific type of maintenance performed, and duration of employment.

This is not necessary, there may be some B/S reciprocity that an FAA administrator acted on but if you come to the USA to test. I can tell you with complete confidence this is not a requirement. If the DME does not feel your English is adequate you may have a foreign only restriction.

Also to add the ATA system is important, if you can document the time and have the experience that covers work performed in all ATA's you should be good!

Take the last five years and start with ATA 05
or use prefabricated logbooks as samples
Work experience documentation for the EASA part 66
