Lapsed ATPL to FAA ATP
Hi All.
Up until approx. 6 years ago I was an A330 Capt on JAA ATPL, 9k+hrs (inc 5.5k Jet Airbus) lost my class 1 medical and was grounded. I have now regained my class 1 medical and intend to regain my EASA ATPL. But, for personal reasons, I'd prefer to gain an FAA ATP prior to my EASA licence.
So the question is, would any credit be given towards an ATP by the FAA for an applicant who previously held a European ATPL, albeit the ATPL isn't current? and any help pointing me in the correct direction would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
