guys just cleared DGCA exams...was planning to go for RT but getting Indian RT is very tough....well i was thinking going for my recency....so i was thinking to do RT from Canada...if i get Canadian RT do i have to give Part 1 i m confused help me out guys....

Yes if you get just the RT then you need to give part 1 in India.
If you already have a CPL (assuming FAA), then I would recommend getting a CPL conversion as well. If you have both Canadian RT and CPL then you can directly get it converted in Indian RT for 5 years. Later you keep to renew it every 5 years. Essentially it will not require you to give exam.

I wanted to know the procedure to get a canadian CPL...and how long does it take to convert. Does FAA Licence have to be current?
