Having gained my JAA PPL in March in California and obtained a FAA licence does anyone know if ths is still valid having just read the thread on the ban on issuing FAA Private Licence alongside the JAA PPL. My plan is to do some hour building within the next few months (hopefully the FAA will relax the ban on VFR flights). I look forward to your comments.

GeordieFlyer,
If you have a full FAA PPL it will be valid for as long as you can pass an FAA Medical.
If you did a conversion and have an FAA PPL issued on the basis of your JAA PPL, it is valid as long as your JAA PPL is valid.
Happy Flying,

Thankyou Naples.
Depends what happens in the next few weeks about these atrocious and cowardly attacks on the US my plan is to come over and do some hour building, I am still unsure what route I am going to take... JAA ATPL or FAA...also not sure on where to do my flying, California or Florida. Once again thanks for your advice.
