Marc1612,
You wouldnt have much difficulty at all finding work with those hours. Talk to Great Slave first and if that doesnt work try Airborne or Bailey. Lots of flying with all three companies. The CP's are all good guys. Best of luck.
Cheers

I am also just over 1250 hours with 206 endorsement and getting ready to look for work soon.
Good Luck!

Canadian CPL(H) to JAA License conversion
I'm wondering where in Europe and at which school.
Preferably (!) long distance. It could be a german, italian, spanish, portuguese or english speaking country. But I guess it doesn't really matter since groundschool and exams are in english anyways.
Cheers

A few schools in the UK do a distance learning course, Internet based and then follow it with a brush up course to finish you off for the exams. Ive heard the school in Oxford and the school in Bristol are good but it's been about 4 years since Ive been out of the UK.

Depends on the rating you hold now and from where?
IE, if you have an FAA or CAA then its pretty straight forward for validation. If you have Malaysian, HKG, RPA, THAI etc... you need to write for a validation.
If you want a full licence, you have to write,,,no choice. All the exams. I think 2 for CPL/IFR and 4 for ATPL.

Assuming you already have a Canadian licence:
(5) Credits for Foreign Applicants
(a) Qualifying Flight Requirement
The holder of a license issued by a Contracting State shall be considered to have met the qualifying flight requirement specified in (3)(c)(iii), (3)(g)(iii), (3)(k)(ii), and (3)(l) above provided the applicant has acquired a minimum of 10 hours pilot-in-command flight time on the appropriate aircraft type during the 12 months preceding the application for rating;
Any holder of a Canadian CPL or ATP (with a type rating) can do the training (form available from TC)
