EAP
Hello,
I'll start the ground course as a CPT with EAP on the 16th of February 2009. Indeed you need to be fluent in French to join the company (interview, courses, manuals,... are in French) but also to get a french equivalence of your license from the French CAA. The FCAA will ask you to sign a paper certifying that French is your native language. If not, you have almost no chance to get the French license and without that paper you are not allowed to fly on a "F" registered aircraft.
