Water World. .I see that you have only recently joined the forum so welcome. Your question has come up many times and will continue to do so. I can point you in the right direction although the news is not encouraging.. .. .Firstly lets clarify the question of Conversion. There is provision for this in the JAA regs. JAR-FCL 1.015 details the requirements. Unfortunatley it is based on the reciprocity of licence aceptance between JAA and Non JAA member states of which there are none at the moment. For example if the Australian Authorities came to an agreement with a JAA member state,the UK for example, and via versa then we could all convert our Aussi licences to a JAA licence issued by the host member state.This licence however would not have to be acepted by other JAA member states. . .. .You will find everything you need to know on the JAA web site <a href="http://www.jaa.nl." target="_blank">www.jaa.nl.</a> Do a search on this forum and you will find an excellent post by Redsnail. A lot of work went into it and you will find all your answers there. . .. .In your case there is no conversion and like the rest of us you will have to do all the 14 theory exams as well as any flight trainning. I cant tell you what that may be as it does not apply to me. Good luck. I hope you are enjoying all that sun down in Fiji..
