UK CAA EASA ATPL Skills Test In the US
I wonder if anyone has any incite as it seems very difficult to get an answer from the UK CAA.
I have recently complete the UK CAA theory exams. I have an FAA EMB135 Type with 1800 in type and 5600TT & FAA ATP. I need to complete the UKCAA IR, Type and ATPL Skills check-ride for the issue of the EASA ATPL. Flight Safety HOU tell me under a full service agreement they are able to do this as well as my FAA recurrents. My understanding is that I need: UKCAA certified Sim UKCAA TRE - IR and Type Conversion observation UKCAA Examiner ATPL Observation (TRE can be authorised be UKCAA) Does this sound right and has anyone been authorised by the UKCAA to do this and/or previously completed the EASA ATPL conversion in the US. |
I am very interested in this also. The only difference is my skills test would have to be in CL-65.

Yes same here, CRJ2, any word on how/where to go about the skill test in the US? If not the US any recommended place in the UK?
Thanks. |

You are absolutely correct. I have been through the same process a few months ago. Just note that for the issuance of a first JAA/EASA license, it used to be mandatory for the skill test to be observed by a UK CAA inspector. This requirement is no longer, however they still can decide to do so. Your TRE must inform the UK CAA that he will be conducting a skill test for the issuance of an ATPL/type-rating issuance and that it will be for a conversion from an FAA ATPL. Normally, the UK CAA will decide not to attend the skill test. Once the skill test is done you need to submit all the paperwork to the UK CAA office in Gatwick with all you original logbooks. They will keep them and you can expect them to be returned together with your new license within a few weeks. Also, note that you will need a current EASA medical for the license to be issued. Hope that helps and all the best |
Hello Everybody,
I am almost finished with my theory exams (3 to go). CL-65 FAA type rated with ATP. I am slowly trying to gather information on getting the check-ride done. Can anyone recommend/suggest a place? I understand that Flight Safety does offer a program? Thank you. |
