JAA ends 30 JUNE 09

Hi all
Sorry if this has already been covered elsewhere (I did search, really I did) but does anyone here have a clue what the handover from JAA to EASA will involve fwhen JAA expires on 30 June next week?

As I understand it, JAA regs did not have much authority whereas EASA does have some legal clout. This should be of interest to everyone.

For example will, say, any EASA TRE, regardless of issuing authority, sign off a revalidation for any other EASA licence holder from 01 July onwards? That's been a grey area for a while under JAA, let alone EASA.

Do JAA-FCL regs automatically become EASA-FCL regs?

Looking at the EASA web site, I find it really difficult to find any information about FCL regs. Furthermore, there is nothing about this change on the JAA web site either, apart from a front page story of the big party everyone had to celebrate it's demise!

We had a similar thing last year with the IATA Language Proficiency checks. within two days of the mandatory start date for this, very few licensing authorities had done anything and suddenly realised they had to. At this point many rushed out a blanket level 4 to their active license holders, and told them to get tested by 2011. How many licence holderes have done this yet?

So, any information about the changeover from JAA to EASA and FCL to ....??? whatever it will be, will be greatly appreciated. Or perhaps if you know of other threads you would kindly show them here Thanks!
