Hello,
Its many years since I've posted on Pprune but thought this might be the place to come looking for wise words regarding what is required to apply for the Visa to do the flight training / flight test / Bi Annual to get my FAA PPL current again. I have not flown for about 12 years so I'm sure a couple of hours refresher training would be required plus a flight test of some kind. I am a UK passport holder but currently a resident of Qatar, working for Qatar Airways in OCC.
I have tried looking on the TSA website for "Simple Answers" but alas its a typical government website that gives no straight forward answers.:ugh:
I am already the holder of an existing licence - does this help me..??
I'm resident in Qatar...will this hinder me...??:rolleyes:
Any help from anyone who has done similar with an expat status in the ME would be greatfully received. :ok:
Happy to discuss this off forum...msg me and I can pass my email to you.
Many thanks,
Steve Lewis
ps Forgive me if this is not the correct forum or the question has been answered as I could not find such in a search :)
