I have an austrian ICAO CPL(H) and ground exams are not required to obtain a JAA CPL(H) VFR except for the NVFR rating. So before you start ranting about my post think first I suggest...

OK, maybe Austrian CPL to JAA CPL is easier. But it certainly ain't easy from FAA to JAA. "parcasna" didn't mention what kind of ICAO CPL he had. I stand to be corrected. Or he stands, or rather he sits.. 14 exams....

Since Austria is a member of the JAA then you are converting your national CPL(H) to a JAA one. Converting a national licence is not what the original poster asked.

Parcasna - sadly you will have to sit 13 exams for the ATPL(H) and 9 for the CPL(H), and do 650 hours and 405 hours study, respectively, through an approved school (i.e. us).

ok thanks!

Yes i have seen some information, in the Caledonian School, I saw they have some facilities at the Bristow Academy in Florida, so I think is the better for me, because I am in Mexico.

And the price I think will be like 11,000 dollars or something similar,...do you know today's prices?...or just an aproximation?..well anyway Thanks.

We are just about to get an arrangement with Cloud 9 as well, plus one in Spain! Also one at Ocean, but distance learning only.

Probably pretty much as said above - pass the 9 written exams (more details at Caledonian Advanced Pilot Training, and the skill test. Budget for about 10 hours, but depending on your recency you may get away with less.
