FAA and JAA Countries For Helicopter Pilots

[drnisda]

Hi There,

This is my first post. I searched at the forum but I didn't find an answer, so... Here it comes


- In which countries can you fly with a FAA Licence (Helicopters)

- In which countries can you fly with a JAA Licence (also for Heli Pilots)

I want to do the FAA licence, then do the convertion to JAA, and then I would like to fly in the Middle East and Africa, after this go back to Europe. Whats up with Asia or Australia?
(I'm European, German)

Thanks people!

C ya!

What you need is a license that matches the registration of the aircraft. So if it is an "N" registered helo, you'll need a FAA certificate. If it's a "D" helo, you deal with the LBA and JAA.

If it's in Australia, you'll jump through CAA hoops.
