Joe what I'm saying is do you think it's fair that you have to do a full FAA ATPL just to fly an N registered aircraft? What's wrong with doing just Air law for that country/license and maybe human performance...provided you meet the requirements to live and work in the US (green card)
Does flying experience not count for anything?
Surely if one has 1000's of hours on Boeing or Airbus why do you need to write aircraft technical for instance, I'm quite sure a CFM56 rotates in exactly the same direction in the US as it does in the EU as it does in the Far East?
