Yes, its called a FAR/AIM (Federal Aviation Regulations/ Aeronautical Information Manual)
You will probably also see 14 CFR which is the Code of Federal Regulations that contain transportation.
An example:
FAR/AIM Combined (ASA) - Sporty's Pilot Shop

You must get your JAA license validated by the FAA first - this is different from the TSA training appoval and can take 45 - 60 days.

FAA ATP +type on it
Does this type will go to your FAA license when you do your ATP, or just FAA ATP?
If not then how to put type on it without doing initial again?
Thanks

Hi, I wondered if you may help me?
I am the holder of a UK issued JAA CPL ME IR & class 1 medical, (land Fixed wing) & would like to convert to a standalone FAA CPL ME IR. I already have a faa certificate (private SE & ME) based on my UK licence. Still finding it difficult to find out what I have to do to convert.
Thanks for your help in advance

You need to do four things.
1) Take the IFP "Instrument - foreign pilot" written test.
2) Take the Commercial pilot written test
3) Take a ME Commercial checkride, based on previous experience. This basically means that with your JAR certificate, you meet all formal requirements and will need only training to proficiency.
You will need (minimum) "3hrs within 60 days" for an instructor to sign you off for the practical test.
4) Take an FAA 1st or 2nd class medical (ok, this you probably should be number 1)

I think you may need TSA approval even for training outside the US.
You could give this guy a call:
FAA AND JAR FLIGHT TRAINING WITH TONY GUNN
I did a checkout with him a few years ago, nice and uncomplicated, he will know the answers.

Hello
Someone did recently the oral exam for the FAA licence?
What did he/she ask?
I'm trying to prepare myself but i don't see the trees anymore in the wood. I have the far/aim book (it is a lot) and try to figure out what's important
.

Get a hold of a copy of the 'oral exam guide', some pretty good hints in there as to what the examiner may ask.
In short, know the aircraft and its sytems inside out, expect to have to describe various systems (electric/hyd) and maybe even draw them. Know the regulations, or at least the most important ones, if you can't remember during the oral exam you should be able to say, "I'm sorry i can't remember that but I know where to find it in the FARAIM", however if you need to use it for all the questions then expect to fail. If you have any weak area's on your written paper then again expect those area's to be questioned at some length.
Expect it to last anything from 30 minutes upwards to the whole day. A nightmare of which I have no desire to have to repeat! But if you prepare well and keep your cool then it should be relativley painless.
