Once you are done with the conversion and you have received your JAA ATPL (frozen) from the UK CAA, the license must be recognized by all JAA member-states - no additional training or testing required!
I don't know if the UK CAA cares about that. Your JAA license remains valid as long as you keep it current.
if I have the UK atpl and I convert the license in another europeen country do UK CAA recongise that or not ?

and the flying?
I think he was asking about the flying part. What is the cheapest flight school around (in EU) to get the flying part of the conversion done? I'd like to know too. Thanks

There is a flight school in Poland, the name is Bartolini Air, they have reasonable prices and I've heard only good things about them here on the forum.
Don't know them personally, only had contact via email (always had to wait a few days until my mails where answered) but besides that all of my questions where answered satisfactorily. I'm planning to do the practical part of my conversion (FAA to JAA) with them. Currently they don't offer the ATP theory course in the English language (only Polish), but they told me that the theory and the exams can be done in any other JAA member-state, it will be accepted by the Polish CAA. After finishing the practical part in Poland (Bartolini Air) you'll be issued a Polish JAA licnese.
