hi I have a question regarding MD 80 Type Rating. I have been offered a job in Middle East flying MD 80. I'm holding an FAA license. The airline is going to offer me a type rating. They have their own Type Rating Training Organisation and off course I have to pay for it
. My question to you guys is that can I do the type rating with my FAA license, or do I need to convert my license to that contry to be able to go throug the type rating course.
I'm getting mixed information regarding this issue. Some say it is OK and some say it is not Ok.
The company operate under ICAO
Any airline captains or FO that can help I would be grateful.
I have posted this in the middle eastern forum too.
Thank you, Amin
