FAA CFI wanting to instruct JAA PPL students..

Hi all,

I am an FAA CFI wanting to complete a course to allow me to give JAA PPL instruction in the USA. I also hold a CAA issued PPL/MEP/IMC.

In searching on PPRUNE and google I understand that I can complete a course by a JAA authorised FI and pass a skills test given by an examiner authorised by the CAA. ( taken from CAA standards document 39 section 3.6.1 )

However in section 3.6.4 this states that this training is for flight instructors that do not hold a JAA licence. BUT then goes on to say that holders of a professional JAA licence have to hold a flight instructors rating.

My question is, am I exempt from attaining this authorisation due to my CAA issued PPL as this is a JAA licence, or does this limitation specifically refer to professional JAA pilots, ie not me as a lowly JAA PPL?

Any help in interpreting this would be a great help, as would any advice from any CFIs in the USA that mabe doing this..
