Which counties accept the JAA licence?
 
As the title suggests, does anyone know where I could find a list of countries (from throughout the world) which accept the JAA licence? Hoping to complete my licence later this year and since jobs aren't exactly plentiful, I'm keen to look abroard.

Thanks.

Hopeful I think you will find the licence you have irrelevant. The problem is lack of jobs for low hour pilots and that is the case overseas even more so as they usually require type rated and very experienced pilots.

Hope no-body will outside the EU, as foreign licence holders are put through hell with an all out 14 subject bla bla bla bla assault ''conversion''unless of course you are a ''Heavy guy''.

As thegypsy say, your licence is irrelevant.
The fact is, unless you're a resident of that country, your chances of getting a job there over a native are pretty slim.
Unless of course you're non-British and come over to the UK :mad: :rolleyes:

Absolutely right. I have FAA/ICAO licenses only, with B-727/737/757/767,A-320,L-1011,DC-10 and MD-80 experience, but NOONE in the UK/EU will hire me. I just lost my job for the 5th time, and its hard for US pilots, too. I wish I could fly in the UK with any of the reputable start-ups beginning ops. Buyers market, unfortunately.
