JAR - Canadian Floatplane licence
I intend to go to B.C. (Kelowna) to train on floats.
I have a JAR PPL, and understand that I can:
1. get a 3 month temporary canadian licence, issued within the hour, just show my UK licence, UK medical, and log book.
2. get a candian licence as a conversion from my UK one, but need to do a canadian medical, and sit a canadian written exam (PSTAR).
No point in adding a floats rating to a temp licence so No2 seems best option. I can do medical here in UK, can I do PSTAR too? (Dont want any delays when in Canada awaiting licence issue)
Then, how do I add a Floats rating to JAR licence? OK, I can sit a UK floats/seaplane exam here, but the training will have been done in a C reg a/c.
Can anyone help please? Marc
