Having the licence in the US is all well and good, but do you have the right to live and work in the United States through a green card or family? If not, then you won't have a chance.

I'd suggest the Academy you speak of should have the information you seek, but also try this
http://www.faa.gov/licenses_certificates/
(Pay heed to the advice of Re-Heat! Find that all-american girl and marry her in Las Vegas!)

at delta they offer a JAA uk ATPL coarse, would ther be a way of transferring that into the FAA equivilant.

Jamie,
I'm from Glasgow & fly for Delta connection in the left seat of the CRJ. I graduated from the academy in '97. Feel free to send me a PM with any questions.
