Convert Aus CPL(H) to JAA
Hello
First post, so be gentle with me ...
I am working towards an Aussie heli CPL (which you can get at 105 hours, and the 7 commercial theory exams).
I was wondering what the story is with converting to a JAA, to fly in the UK (as that is where I'm from originally, and may return in a year or two).
Anyone got any experiences or pointers to the right info?
What are the flight time and ground school requirements? I've heard it could be a nightmare of hoops to jump through.
I also have a CAA PPL(A) with 100 hours TT, although haven't flown fixed wing for a few years so not current. Does the fixed wing time help at all in the conversion?
Any thoughts, gratefully received.
