Can I apply for the GCAA even if I am not working in the UAE as I am looking for a job and I have a full B1 and B2 EASA UK and it will make it easier if I have the GCAA as well ??

So May I apply or do I have to be within an airline to do that ?

@ Kingfisher747

If I'm not mistaken you need a letter from your employer. If you have a UK EASA they should realise that you can get a licence though so not having the GCAA won't hurt your application. UK EASA is, in my opinion, worth much more than the GCAA anyway.
Wish I had one of those, GCAA not worth much outside the UAE at the moment. Lets hope that changes
Not holding my breath though

If your looking for a GCAA AMEL you can go onto the GCAA website and download the form, i think it is No7 and it tells you that among other things you need a UAE visa OR a letter from a GCAA approved MRO outside of the UAE.

as already by others advised GCAA will not convert a non type rated licence as long as you dont certify. Read CAAP 28 and answer the question by yourself.

And no, they will not in future, despite of all the rumours to get inline with EASA.

GCAA question.

I took the exam earlier in the year, I made some notes at the time and listed the questions I could remember. They are shown below, hope it helps someone out.

regards

The Doc




Multi choice questions – GCAA Air legislation on 10th May 2012. There are 40 questions and you have 50 minutes in which to complete them. In my opinion this is new questions in the new format, there has been a real shift from the older GCAA legislation to the newer CAR 66, 147, 145, CAR M and in a small way CAR OPS. That’s certainly where the majority of your revision should be.

1. Which Part 66 licenses have sub categories

a. B2 and A
b. A and B1
c. B2 and C

2. What is the sub category number for Helicopter Turbines

a. A1 and B1.2

c. 8 Years

8. What is the maximum number of students in practical training at any one time

9. Odd question about who a CRS is issued for?? – I think what they were getting at is described in CAR M.801 (b) 1. (CAR 145 version)

b. For the licensed engineer
c. Something else

10. Who is responsible for day to day 145 airworthiness regulation monitoring

a. The accountable manager
b. The QC Manager (This was my guess on the answer because of how it was phrased using the words ‘day to day’, but the accountable manager is ultimately responsible)
c. Certifying staff

11. Who is responsible for Corporate/Finance in a CAR 145 Org

a. The accountable manager
b. The QC Manager
c. The certifying staff

12. Who issues an aircraft radio license

a. The GCAA
b. The Ministry of Communications
c. Someone else

13. A question about an aircraft that is fit to fly but can’t for some reason
a. Fitness for flight

15. Which aircraft can a sub part F maintain

a. 12 Months
b. Until the aircraft is removed from service
c. 36 months

19. What is the purpose of CAR M – Sub part D (Refer to CAR M sub part D CarM.401)

a. Maintenance documentation
b. Maintenance standards – I think, maintenance docs are mentioned within there
c. Something else

Converting EASA to GCAA

Hi,

You can have every type rating in the world, 2 things you must also have is the type on the UAE register and a minimum 2 years signing experience on each type!
No if or butts.
The GCAA are considering allowing a type rated person without the min 2 yrs signing experience get an 'A" license.

This is only an option with your companies assistance and this being the middle east will take time how long?
How long is a piece of string?

If you now have 330 and 345 as well you must have been working there no one gives a type rating and then a nnother one if they have not got some benefit of the first one.

Oh I miss the BCARS when you first had to get company approval then apply for type within regulatory body.

QA used to try and tear you a new one every time you went to see them.

Also if you wish to sit mod 10 you have to be sponsored in the UAE or so I thought?

Good luck
