Hello Zondaracer and Markerinbound, thank you very much for your answers. Good to know I do not need the TSA. I did the fingerprints already one year ago, but I think I must "reactivate" the TSA. But my big problem is the Validation Letter of my foreign licence by the FAA. It says it can take til 90 days... I did it 16 months ago but it expired. I've been told this morning by a friend that I do not need it to pass the written (I have to pass it in the USA as the two european locations where ATP written can be passed are complete until 19th of august). Could anyone give me some info about that? I've already faxed all the documents to the FAA, but the waiting is going to be eternal to me... I fly a corporate jet, so the plan is to pass the checkride in a sim session. Do I still need the validation letter or this is only if I need to fly on a real plane to do the checkride?
Again, thanks.
