ICAO ME IR Conversion to EAS ME IR Please help, funny situation :)
Hello,
Is it at all possible to convert a Canadian Group1 instrument rating to EASA ME IR?
I hold a Canadian ATPL SMEL, IR: Group 1 with B73C, and DHC8 type ratings. I haven't flown in Canada since 2016
I also hold an EASA CPL(A) with PC12 SET, PA-46 SET, CRI, and valid SE IR.
I was given an offer from an ATO to do 50 precent of a MEP IR course. The local CAA wont reduce the training since I dont have very many hours on MEP class aircraft.
I have a funny situation considering I have thousands of hours on a large mulit engine turbopro and 900 hours on b737 in Canada. I do not intend to exercise the privileges of MEP IR. I wish to have ME IR endorsed on my license via conversion so I can enter a type rating course without restriction (in Europe).
Is there someone in the know which can help with EASA conversion regulations?
Thank you and kind regards,
