Well you do have a point,
But it’s not all true.....
a friend of mine with Swedish CAA licenses got his type rating from BAE in England. Swedish CAA did not have any problems with this at all.
I don’t know maybe Sweden and England have a agreement or something.... but I think it works out at the end of the day. All it takes is lost of phone calls to the respective CAA. oh yes and don’t forget lost of money too
