For all the dreamers of a JAA licence
For All the dreamers of a JAA licence: you won't escape the normal conversion route
There's a mutual recognition between FAA and transport Canada , if you have a FAA ATP you can get a Transport Canada ATP by just sitting the airlaw exam . Does that mean that all the holders of the FAA tickets will get a JAA licence , which will never be accepted. Can you imagine the invasion of all the FAA pilots in Europe and the closure of all the EU TRTO ? Economically this is absolutely impossible. Seems to be too easy , get an FAA licence convert it to canadian licence and get the JAR licence
The only possible conversion is take the 14 exams + CPL+ IR skill test for an ICAO CPL/IR holder or 14 exams + skill test on a JAR 25 a/c for an ICAO ATPL holder.
Or if you hold an ICAO ATPL with more than 3000 hours on aircraft of more than 30 T including more than 1500 PIC on a/c more than 30 T just take the airlaw exam + Human performance and a skill test and you get a UK licence (for UK registered a/c only ! which is not a JAR licence.
Dream on!
