Australian ATPL(H) conversion to EASA Equivalent

[Hey-Driver]

Thanks Phil,

Do you have a reference for these requirements? A UK CAA document maybe?

There has been talk of CASA working with EASA to allow the reciprocal recognition of most of the ATPL theoretical knowledge exams for licence conversions. This is a bit more realistic than repeating the whole ATPL theory course (14 exams), wouldn't you agree?

CASA has a document which details the requirements for overseas ATPL (H) conversions in Australia which is available at:

casa.gov.au/wcmswr/_assets/main/fcl/.../atplh_requirements.pdf

They only require three theory exams to be passed as part of converting an overseas ATPL:

- CPL Flight Rules and Air Law for Helicopters (CLWH)
- Human Factors (AHUF)
- ATPL Air Law (AALW)

- then the IREX exam to allow the issue of a CIR

There are also separate flight tests for the issue of the ATPL and the CIR.

Thanks again.
