btw,
TSA have since specified that 'initial' is the FIRST FULL FAA/standalone FAA certificate/rating, not strictly PPL, so even for ATP, the TSA should have been done. Well, if someone gets away with it on the basis of not knowing or being misinformed, but it's in the FAQs of TSA website past year or 3. Getting cross with TSA for some is more feared than immigration or challenging some regs with FAA.
hueyracer, so, if you didn't have validation/piggyback PPL issued, only verification letter stating that your credentials are genuine, did you fly with examiner on student solo sign-off and the DPE was the PIC for the flight?

EASA pilot wants FAA licence
Hello y'all,
I´m a holder of an EASA unrestricted ATPL(H) and I want to get the FAA ATPL, mainly for CV reasons: I´ve found some O&G producer countries who accept the FAA but don´t accept EASA and would like to open my range of opportunities.
I am willing to cross the pond and get it done in my OFF days. Anybody whose already done it? Where? Is Florida a good choice? I know there are many Flight Schools (and I´ve not heard good feedback about some). Is it possible to do it in Europe?
Any imput appreciated,
Thorond0r
