Australian (CASA) Part-66 to EASA Part-66 Conversion.
Hi guys,
I am a young Australian GA engineer, I completed my apprenticeship in Aus as well as all but 2 of my basics for a piston engine & airframe licence. I have since started working for a GA maintenance org here in Scotland. I know that I have upto 4 years under the 'grandfather' clause to complete my lisence under the old CAR 31 system and that if I do (which i will) I will be granted a CASA Part-66 license.What I want to know is if this license can be used in the EU or if not (my suspicion) what the conversion process is, Including cost's involved if anyone knows. Cheers, Peter

Look on safety regulation group website, personnel licencing, engineers and download ELGD [engineering licence guidance document]. Dont think anyone's licences are recognised anymore , but check in doc. Documented experience is still required so keep the logbook going and then go for the exams whilst you're young and the training is still fresh in your mind !

Hmmm...That's a bit of a bummer. Maybe this will change in the future because according to CASA:
"By gaining a Part 66 licence, you will have an internationally recognised licence with more potential for automatic recognition by other countries."
Here's another question then, Does anyone know if jobs preformed here in Scotland can be used for SOE time accumulation?
