As far as the original question - As previous poster said Tim Price at Shoreham is the only person I personally know.

Can I get an FAA license & medical in the UK or do I have to go to the US to do the tests etc.

Am I right in assuming that I then dont have to do a LPC on each type every year, I have 3 different ratings & its costing a fortune to keep current.

Thanks RB

rotorboater, ask yourself why you want an FAA rating.

If it is just to cut costs on maintaining currency on your JAR ratings, I don't think it will work, it might be more expensive (one extra license to maintain).

If you plan to stay in JAR land and intend to fly those 3 types you are rated on, in JAR aircraft, I don't believe having an FAA ticket will give you any benefit.
