FAA Trype Rating VS JAA Type Rating
Hello guys,
Here's an intresting question... We all know that it takes a licence conversion to fly in JAA airspace with a FAA licence. You can do that licence conversion somewhere in Europe, let's say by doing the 20 or so hrs for CPL ME/IR conversion...
Here comes the intresting part....IF i have a 737 NG type rating issued by the FAA, allong with a CPL ME/IR... , DO I NEED TO CONVERT IT TO JAA ??? To be more specific : is there such a thing as a Type Rating conversion to be able to fly for an european company if you have a FAA- issued 737 NG rating? Or do I just need to convert my FAA CPL ME/IR to JAA CPL ME/IR....?
Thank you ,
Mike.

Conversion of the licence and instrument rating will not automatically transfer any other privileges. A type rating may be transferred from a non-JAA licence to a UK issued licence subject to:
As you are talking about the conversion of a CPL/IR, I assume that the B737 rating in question is limited to SIC. In this case it cannot be transferred to a UK issued licence but the rules in Romania may be different.
- 500 hours experience as PIC on type*
- Operational experience on type within the preceding 5 years
- Passing the approved type rating theoretical knowledge examination
- Passing the relevant Licensing Skill Test
