I don't think you'll be able to avoid the written exams and all the rest, my friend ! Check the JAA website: http://www.jaa.nl

But the first question you should ask yourself is: "Do I have the right to work in Europe ?". Up here like anywhere else on this planet, you'll need a working permit or a European citizenship.

How do things work there ?

Thanks for all of your help !!!

You're asking about Switzerland. Since Switzerland isn't part of the EU yet,getting to work there is still different than in other EU countries. Although you have a EU-passport, to work in Switzerland you would have to have a work permit.In some cases there are bilateral agreements bewteen Switzerland and other EU countries where getting a work permit is easy (easier).

There is Swissair, Crossair, Balair/CTA, PrivatAir and numerous Corporate companies to work for.A good start is always with Crossair, a good company which I would recommend.

Your initial difficulty however would be to convert your licence.Like Flying_Steph is saying check out the jaa website to find info about converting your licence.

Happy new Year
