Foreign ATPL(A) Conversion to CASA ATPL(A)
Hi all,
I have just moved back to Australia after flying in the Middle East the past 5 years and have started the conversion process with CASA for my foreign GCAA ATPL(A). Just wondering if anyone has info on how long it usually takes CASA to approve the 61-4A Form (basically approves your docs to write the AOSA exam)?
I got the AOSA study books from AFT whilst overseas, but now they are delayed in my cargo - any info where I can buy these ‘used’ or borrow them until I actually receive my kit so I can get the ball rolling with the study?
I have a 737 type rating and previously held a CASA CPL(A) as well, but figured easier to convert my foreign ATPL(A) than have to write all the ATPL subjects. I have > 8000 hours multi crew experience so I presume I don’t have to do the MCC course either?
It’s all a big grey between the fine print, so if anyone can shed some light on foreign ATPL conversions - that would be great! Thanks in advance!
