AIUI, if you have an FAA issued PPL and less than 100hrsTT, you need to pass all the JAA ground exams and the skills test. More than 100hrsTT just Air law, Human Performance and the skills test will do. The JAA NQ is not included.
IMHO, if one is inexperienced, even if it is not a requirement on a G reg, passing the JAA stuff would seem to make sense from a familiarisation point of view.
