FAA FIT / JAA UNFIT
Yes I have a problem with white & green and have a FAA Class 1 after passing tower light signal test in Florida (Statement Of Demonstrated Ability) however UK/CAA have placed the restrictions that 2close mentions on my license.
Take my advice - do not bang your head against a brick wall like I have for the past 10+ years. If one state will allow you to fly for a career and another one won't then it is a no brainer - stick with the one that will allow you your dream. Especially if their aircraft make up 70 % of the worlds fleet.
Would love to fly professionally in JAA land but will have to wait until a more progressive and enlightened era begins
Don't ever stop dreaming but look for path of least resistance in ordwer to stay sane (important thing is to keep flying and don't let the ba@$%3rds get you down). remember where there is a will there is a way !
