Hey, Thanks for your reply

Hmm, didnt know about the "quality hours". That makes things a little more difficult. Hopefully the demand for Pilots will go up enough so the airlines who will be employing you actually pay for your type-rating. Time will tell.

I want to move to Europe simply because the lifestyle there seems to suit me better, I just seem to feel more comfortable there and enjoy being there more then here, maybe I just live in a boring place, after all the name "Middletown" says it all. hehe. I guess its personal preferance, but thats what I would like to do.

Lately ive been noticing that lots of the commuters and regionals here in the U.S are hiring. Maybe picking up a job and flying on a CRJ/ERJ or a Beech1900 for a year or two will give me just the expierience I need to get a better flying job in Europe. Just an idea. Really would like to do this.

With regards to switing the licenses from FAA to JAR, whats involved? Is it simply a matter of learning the JAR regulations and passing a written exam?

Thanks for any replies.
