FAA CFI to JAA FI
Sirs/madams,
outta my own lazyness I guess I will ask here first, Im sure somebody has some valuable information.
I currently hold FAA CFII/MEI licences and a JAA frozen ATPL, what do I actually have to do to get a JAA FI, what it required? I am sure that the FAA CFI is not even worth the paper its printed on as far as JAA FI goes, am I right?
any insight and pointers would be good
thanx

sega, do yourself a favour, don't bother coming over here, stay where you are. Aviation in the UK is full of people like BillieBob, which is one of the reasons I didn't convert my CFI/II/MEI to JAA FI and only fly for 1 week a year (in the US!!).
BillieBob- if you have better things to do, don't bother replying. If anyone takes the biscuit, it's you!!!
sega, I think the training minimum is slightly less than doing the full JAA FI course, but it's down whoever signs you off (hopefully not someone like BillieBob the biscuit taker).

Looks to me as if you are eating some biscuits here
Billiebob!
Sega - most people will assume that you are talking about aeroplanes or do you fly helicopters? Never mind - rules are the same 15hrs flying and 30 hrs ground!
