Restricted FAA PPL
Hi,
I would be grateful if someone could answer this question.
I have a restricted FAA PPL based on my JAA PPL.
I went to the States and done the following -
1) Multi Engine Rating, followed by : -
2) Instument Rating completed all in a multi engine aircraft.
The only ground exam I did was the FAA Instrument Rating Exam.
The FAA have advised me that that they will not issue my FAA Ratings because I did not sit the FAA PPL written exam.
It was my understanding that I would only need to do the FAA written exam if I wanted the restrictions on my license removed.
Can someone please adivse me if I need to do the FAA PPL written exam or if I dont want the restricitons removed the I do not have to sit this exam.
If someonce could also point me in the right direction where this is in the FAR AIM I would be most grateful.
Thanks
Steve
