Guys,
I'm more then pleased to be able to come back to this forum after a long absence with a few questions. My vision is such that the best I can do is an FAA Class Three medical, which apparently entitles me to a PPL and an IR in the US, which is more then I ever dreamed of after losing the chance of a Class One. Ok I hoped to be an airline pilot, but you can't have everything! My question is (since I can't find the answer on the Web):
What type of aircraft can I fly? The US regs say that I can fly anything with up to a 6000lb payload (which to my mind includes the L-39 Albatross and Citation I (both of which are certified for single crew ops I belive, or am I going insane?) Personally I'd prefer the L-39, it's one of my fantasies to own one.
Second of all, can I fly at all in Europe with an FAA PPL/IR? Does the aircraft had to be US registered? I assume I can train for an FAA PPL/IR somewhere in Europe?
Thanks in advance for any help, it's much appreciated. Now I just have to go save up

PS: Ok I've found some of the info. I can also get an ME rating I believe, any other ratings needed to be able to use my PPL/IR to it's full extent? I suppose there's no chance of getting a type rating on a B732 for fun?
