I know her. She is a thoroughly nice person and a regular at Winterhaven where I fly.

However she is a USC and as such requires a work permit to work in Europe. being a self employed FAA DPE is not grounds for such a work permit. Being a DPE doe not make her a representative of the US government anymore than being a JAA Examiner makes me a representative of the UK government.......

So unless she is being sponsored by a UK company for a work permit which is just as big a hassle as a Brit going to work in the US I am wondering how exactly she can come and take payment for work performed in the EU?

No axe to grind, just an inquisitive mind and would be interested in the answer.
