FAA to JAR

[Mr.Qte]

:confused:

I am converting my FAA ATP to the UK-JAR ATPL.
What are the exact requirements on the flying part.
What exams to take. Sofar I found out, IR & CPL.
What need to be done in a twin and what can be done a single (complex)?
Is ther a difference when converting from a FAA-CPL to JAR-ATPL or FAA_ATP to JAR-ATPL?

Appreciate any help in this case. So far I had many answers and they all whistled a different tune.

Mr.Qte.

CPL Skill Test - Complex single or multi as desired ,

Min 15hrs training for IR + IR test - both multi ,

14 written exams

Class 1 medical .

There is not a conversion process as such; The FAA Commercial requirements may not satisfy the JAA ATPL hours minima, whereas the ATP is about the same as the ATPL.

Download the leaflet at http://www.caa.co.uk/docs/175/srg_fcl_gid25.pdf, click on (5) "conversion of a non JAA professional license...".

Should cover it.

CAA Personnel Licensing Division may often be justly criticised, but they are at-least very good at explanatory leaflets.
