Question FAA?? JAA?? Commercial - Help!!!

Hi All!

Similar to a recent post, I am at a crossroads where I want to begin training for a commercial licence. I don't intend sitting on my butt any longer for an 'elusive' sponsorship from an airline and want to get things started under my own wings.

I have a JAA PPL, but i have spent considerable time building hours in the states and i kind of like the teaching/exam methods used in american flying schools (certainly the FAA exams seems easier to comprehend than some of the JAR questions i have seen).

I know no-one has a crystal ball - but would i really be making a mistake if i went with the FAA route or will JAR open more doors for me. Ive read about possible nightmare in converting a FAA to a JAR but id appreciate if anyone has any experience of this and can give me any guidence.
