Porco,
Although there is a dislike to the JAR system at the moment, the reality is that we will all end up with a JAR licence at some time.. .The outfit I work for has just aquired some extra aircraft which are registered in a JAR member state and they will continue to be so. If we want to fly them then we must apply for a JAR ATPL, which the CAA are offering FOC at the time of application for the UK ATPL.. .Our foreign pilots who are flying on validations from the CAA are also getting JAR licence.. .PS I hear EZY are going all JAR as well..
