"A JAR compliant licence is an ICAO licence such as the FAA licence with the addition of the JAA air law and R/T examinations."
What document is this promulgated in?
Why is it that the CAA people I have spoken too have never heard of it?
No JAA document makes any reference to it!
A FAA pilot certificate (with 100 hours) plus JAA Air Law is conversion criteria for JAA licence issue. The RT Licence is a seperate licence, issued nationally and not covered by the JARs.
