Why is this conversation entirely one sided?
If you’re British with an EASA licence you are almost entirely shut out of the European market because you have to have an automatic right to work to take up EASA job
ifs not mutual recognition you want but favouritism
I got my European licence whilst the UK was in the transition period- so still part of the EU and I STILL had to do a European (Irish) initial medical at great expense because EASA states stopped validating UK medical records. This was despite the fact that all of my training and exams had been dual approved and conducted when we were 100% part of EASA.
for once let the U.K. aviation market be profitable for U.K. residents and nationals, we are behind in almost every aspect to our peers in Europe yet are amongst the most productive pilots in the continent
if there’s a labour shortage then it’s up to the airlines to address that domestically, why should be always be subsidising European licence holders when we don’t get the same rights over there?
