EASA/FAA or only EASA
Dear Aviation Geeks,
I will start my training in September from zero.
My plan was to do my training in the US, PPL/CPL/IR/ME and then come back to Europe to do ATLP exams, and convert my FAA licences to EASA.
After doing the budget I arrive at the amount of EUR 55000EUR (including food and accomadation - I know that I might add 10 per cent of this amount because we do not know what it can happen then)
I was thinking that having a "double" licence will permit to open more doors (for example the Jet planes N- based in EU or in the middle east). For info I do not hold US passport nor Green card, so working in the US is to forget for the moment.
BUT after had a desilution with the american flight school that I was planned to go, I decided to only do the PPL and hours building in US and all the rest in EU, I get the amount of 35.000 EUR (all included without the 10% of secure)
Being in short final to start my training, I have many doubts appearing in my mind.
Is there any real advantage to get a EASA/FAA licences with only ~250h TT?
because I wanted a FAA licence to approach the executive companies but as per the offers I see on the web from them, they recquire a lot of TT, and might prefer the ex military.
May someone help me out with this??
Thank you in advance dear readers.
