Good day everyone,
I was born in South Africa and moved to the U.S when I was aprox 17. As a result I now am a duel citizen holding passports to both the U.S and South Africa. I did all my training in the U.S and through instructing have built my hours up to aprox 2,500hrs with 400 of that being multi. I also just recently passed my ATP checkride.
My question is that seeing that all of my licenses are FAA, what do I have to do to come to South Africa and get on with an airline? Convert? And if so what do I convert to, JAA, CAA, JAR? If hired, is that something I do at the airline or would I have to find an approved school either in the U.S or South Africa to do the conversion.
Any input would be greatly appreciated
Thank you for the help.
