FAA Foreign Pilot IR & CFI
I am currently planning to instruct JAA Licences in the US.
I currently have a FAA PPL based on a Foreign UK JAA PPL.
I understand I have to complete training as required for the Commercial and the CFI.
However, an exam called the Instrument Rating Foreign Pilot exists - which is a CATS exam then a paperwork exercise to get an FAA IR based on my JAA IR. Baed on 61.75 which is Instrument added to a Foreign Pilot PPL.
Can I then add a CFI to this Commercial with Instrument privileges based on my JAA Licence? or do I need a full FAA IR?
I have read the Part 61 181 over and can't seem to get a definitive answer from it - or do I need a full FAA IR?
I asked one of local examiners and they didn't even realise a foreign pilot instrument rating existed - however one did - any ideas anyone?
