Myanmar conversion
AIR JAE
A foreign license conversion in The Golden Land of Myanmar consists of only a local validation to fly locally registered aircraft. If your company has foreign registered aircraft such as French like Air Mandalay or Canadian helicopters, then you will have to obtain a validation from that authority which is done by your employer. You will only be able to sit for the 1952 Union Of Burma Law exam once you are employed. The exam is taken from a book written by the British in 1952 (and that's the last time that any of these guys had an update of any pilot theory!) The exam also has questions from the local AIP which is also so far out of date. As they make up everything themselves. They say that they are an ICAO State, however they have no contact with any other ICAO contractual states! The exam itself is a sham and will cost you 2 bottles of scotch. And this I believe is how all local people obtain their licenses. Either by bribary or having a relative in a position of authoruty (ie a general) You will however get good hours in Burma and a good variety of wx and terrain to fly in. The issue of a business long term visa should be arranged for you by your employer, which will allow you to work there. If you have any questions please ask.
Safe Flying!
