FAA to JAA

Hi Cpt KC
I am sharing the apartment with 2 people who are doing conversions from faa, and they are both testing today, yes there are some differences like in the states flight levels start at 18000 feet, so they have not used QNH, transition alt, transition level etc, obviously goes with out saying its a failure if you forget to change, there are some rather large mountains around the airports here so you can see the importance of getting that correct, from what I here it seems there are a fair few differences between the 2, I will see if I can get one of them to PM you later on today with their thoughts..
All the best
