Thanks Gordy.....but to convert to an FAA CPL is a simple exam from what I can decipher, correct?
Nope. There is NO conversion. The only license that can be obtained through conversion is a private license as per 14 CFR 61.75.
See Here
All other licenses require a written and practical test.
Here are the requirements for a commercial license, for which I might add you have to have hold an FAA private license.
14 CFR 61.123
