The CAR's are 5th down the list.

Actually, what you'll get initially is a Validation Certificate which will be your temporary license 'til you get your 200 hours in a Phil. registered aircraft.

After getting 200 hours, that's when they will convert your FAA CPL to an RP-CPL.

But beware, though. The process might be more painful than what is actually written in the CAR's.

A friend of mine actually suggested at one time to stop reading the CAR's after getting all sorts of requirements and varying interpretation depending on the check pilot he faced on a particular day. Here's a valuable tip, though: NEVER EVER GIVE THEM YOUR LOGBOOK IF THEY ASK THAT YOU LEAVE IT WITH THEM. Photocopy it or what have you. That freakin' office is one big black hole in the center of the known aviation universe.
