EASA to FAA license conversion school
 

Hello, I'm a EASA frozen ATPL license holder and I would like to convert it to an FAA license.
Do you know any flight school that offers the new conversion course?
Thank a lot.

EASA to FAA license conversion school
 

Google is your friend - Aerosim, Sporty's and CAE in Dallas. Sporty's is the cheapest, CAE the most expensive

The problem is that since August regulations changed and now prior taking the written exam I have to do a 30 hours ground course and 10 hours in a simulator but from all the schools that I asked none is doing that course.

You state you have a Frozen ATPL. So you have, in fact, a CPL and not an ATPL. That begs the question: Do you have the required hours for an FAA ATP? Or are close enough that you expect to gain the needed hours before your ATP exam credit expires in 2 years?

If not then the new FAA ATP requirements don't affect you because you won't be able to to get an ATP anyway. The highest licence you can get is a Commercial, + add ratings to it eg instrument, instructor etc.

If you hold a CPL I'm afraid you get no credits for the ATPL ground school and you need to do a full approved course which is 650 hours of study and 14 exams. You will get credit for your flying hours and I believe you get some credit for the training required before the CPL skills test and IR, although flight schools will know the details. I'm not sure what you mean by 'the written exam' in this context.

Those sound like the EASA rules Alex.

I think that the OP is trying to go from EASA to FAA, so FAA rules (whatever they are) apply.

sorry! ignore me

There are only 4 approved schools that have an approved ATP CTP that an individual could sign up for as of the middle of December. The three Black Sheep listed and Flight Safety Int. was just approved this month.

I have over 3000 flight hours, 1400 as PIC and I have all the requirements for the ATP.

Thank you guys for all the information, I will let you know how it goes.

Based on a foreign license marking or not
 

I am also interested of getting my EASA ATPL with a Saab340 PIC type rating to an FAA ATP. How do I do? Will I get a "real" FAA license or a "based on a foreign license" on my FAA license? :confused:

The paper shuffle "based on" certificate will only get you a private certificate with your type rating limited to VFR only. To get an ATP with the type you must go through the same process as an American pilot, ATP written training, ATP written, type GS and flight training and ATP checkride.

Thank you! Do I need an FAA student license, PPL or CPL before I start my ATP education? or is my EASA ATPL all I need.

Normally in FAA land you have to get a private to get a commercial and then an ATP. However if you hold an ICAO ATP you can go straight to the FAA ATP.

ICAO CPL (+ required hours) also lets you go direct to ATP.
