Conversion

<<<<With regards to flying for an european airline I understand that you need JAA license, they require conversion of the FAA. Regarding Asia I dont know how it works there. Personally I will be going for a combination of both JAA and FAA, because it is more and more chances then.>>>

I was under the impression that a conversion to JAA/EASA from FAA required essentially retaking all the training and flight checks again, in the EU, for instance.

Why would anyone come to the U.S. to train and then go back to Europe to fly? Wouldn't the total costs be outrageous?

But maybe I missed something here. It wouldn't be the first time today.
