Not wishing to get into the JAA / FAA battle as it will never go away ( and as someone on another thread said, who are we to question the USA when it was the birthplace of powered flight?...) , I was merely asking what sort of potential employment possibilities I had on a FAA licence in europe, preferably the uk..

I fail to see (no pun intended!) why the FAA are quite happy to issue a class one medical for visual limits with a statement of demonstrated ability, where the JAA staunchly refuse to even consider it ... We all operate in the same skys, so are the JAA saying an FAA pilot with a medical deviation is LESS safe than a JAA pilot on the limits of the class one JAA eyesight regs?
