Aussie PPL(A) do i need JAA/JAR conversion?
First thread, bare with me...
I’m a UK citizen currently living and flight training in Australia. I’ve got on really well with the flight training and associated study and I’m now seriously considering progressing my flight training on my return to the UK.
Will I have to convert my Aussie PPL(A) to enrol on JAA/JAR commercial training, and if so, what's required?
I’m also unsure of the actual commercial path which will ultimately put me in a position of gainful employment should I become suitably qualified. Can anyone enlighten me in layman’s terms?
Browsing the internet I see there are JAR/JAA courses advertised in all corners of the world, does training outside of the UK or EU member state put you at a disadvantage when in a position to apply for jobs?
I’m in a financial position to train full time, in the UK if necessary - are there any prerequisites or assessments recommended before I commit to any commercial training? I’m aware it's a lot more demanding and in-depth than a PPL which most people can achieve.
I’d be grateful for any comments or feedback
Thanks in advance
