My plan for doing my commercial license.
Hello, and Merry Christmas
I currently have my Private pilot's license which was done in Canada. I am now looking to do my Commercial. Since I want to end up flying in Europe I am thinking of doing my commercial in Sweden (Diamond Flight Academy). Is this a good plan? or should I just do my commercial in Canada and then a conversion somewhere in Europe? Is the EU citizenship required for most airlines? or can I get around that somehow and job availability in Europe in terms of time building( No instructing). Any Advice would be greatly appreciated. |
MOST airlines in Europe require EU or EEC citizenship. Those that don't require legal permanent residency usually. If you don't have either, I wouldn't waste my time with the JAA stuff for now.

Ya, but what I was thinking is that I would rather convert from Jaa to Faa than the other way around. And the program that I wan't to do seams to be very good and very beneficial.

Since I want to end up flying in Europe but what I was thinking is that I would rather convert from Jaa to Faa Also it is far easier to convert Canadian licenses to FAA and vice versa. |
I want to end up living in Europe/flying there. So I wan't to do the JAA commercial instead of the FAA. I have a citizenship in a country that is not in the EU.
|
I have a citizenship in a country that is not in the EU. To just say "I want to work there" won't cut it and the JAA licence is very expensive. |
I think you have your answers.
You need to go and check into how you plan to legally live and work in Europe before embarking on JAA licenses. Closing this thread. |
