juswonnafly, what is the CAA requirement then? When you say 'it CAN be taught in the US' does that still mean by a CAA/JAA CFI?

You see, I did 3 hrs dual night with an FAA instructor, then got signed off for night solo on my FAA student pilot certificate and did all the requirements, (ie. 1hr nav, 5 full stops, 1 departure and rejoin and the 5hrs sim IR).

If I have fullfiled the basic flying requiremnts and am competent then isn't that enough? If I remember rightly, the CAA said they would be happy to issue a multi when I asked them about doing the training in France in french, as long as I did the right number of hours. The fact that the instructor was French didn't seem to bother them.

This is one to check with the CAA I fear!
