The South is beautiful, just the weather is not really the best. Not really Brazil but further down south, Uruguay is also an amazing place, aviation there is really nice, there is a little town down there where the look has been preserved as it was in the `30s-`50s, old American and French cars, they have one of the only non paved international airports in the world, it`s really worth a flying trip, the food, the peoples and especially the place is just awesome Puerto Carmelo

ANAC

Very good info about how to do the validation works in Brazil. I just did that not too long ago and everything seems right... the only huge problem is ANAC (I am still waiting on them) like you said you need to be on top of them everyday... they are really slow and sometimes have mix/wrong information. The place to get the medical is called CEMAL in Rio and be ready to spend 2 days in there if it is an initial medical....

dang swiss! Extremely informative.

What would you say is the time to get the license from the day you start your medical? 3 months? 1 month?

Assuming everything goes as planned, you have all the right documents first time around.

Also, think you could pm me (or email me) with the questions on the exam and how they are different than the FAR?

One last question: for the exam we have to take, is it just the regulation one or is it the whole mess of weather, this that, etc etc that regular first time ANAC pilots have to do?

For the exam, it's just regulation and I believe it's 20 questions.

Here you go.. Some users suggested this book to study
Hope this help , even because as I get my license I will convert into a brazilian one (I am Italian).

Bianch.com - A maior Pilotīs Shop do Brasil na internet!

Let me have some news about your convert process.
Obrigado e bom dia, ciao!

Thank you very much! I will definitely post about what I had to do and everything.

I'm ready to make lots of useless trips to get things they never said was needed. It happens all the time, I'm used to it.

This is the one I used to study for the regulations test. Regulamentos de Tráfego Aéreo – IFR - Bianch.com - A maior Pilotīs Shop do Brasil na internet!

I am in Florida every month so for those of you wanting to buy the book I could buy it and take it to Florida if need be. Just let me know.
