FAA Trype Rating VS JAA Type Rating

[Nazarov]

Hello guys,

Here's an intresting question... We all know that it takes a licence conversion to fly in JAA airspace with a FAA licence. You can do that licence conversion somewhere in Europe, let's say by doing the 20 or so hrs for CPL ME/IR conversion...

Here comes the intresting part....IF i have a 737 NG type rating issued by the FAA, allong with a CPL ME/IR... , DO I NEED TO CONVERT IT TO JAA ??? To be more specific : is there such a thing as a Type Rating conversion to be able to fly for an european company if you have a FAA- issued 737 NG rating? Or do I just need to convert my FAA CPL ME/IR to JAA CPL ME/IR....?


Thank you ,
Mike.
