Problem is, I have an ICAO and will be getting the FAA as well. --- NO JAA.

I was thinking about it but, geezzz..... 12 ATP subjects to complete again just to get JAA. My hair will start turning grey by the time I start the first.
This gives me the Sh*ts. Why can't the aviation community just have one standard. Currently we have ICAO, FAA, and JAA. So, it effectively disqualifies you to work in some other countries.

So what happens if I have an ICAO and FAA license with 2,000 hrs in an Airbus ?
Probable reply " I'm sorry sir, we need JAA license ".

Heaven help us if they start to even think of having different rulings on RVSM on different parts of the world. ETOPS already has it's specifics.
