Hey

I am looking to convert my comm/multi/IFR from canadian to FAA. Anyone know the costs or where I should do this? I was thinking of doing it in Trenton NJ at ATP. I would need to convert an instructor rating as well. Also is it still possible to get a work visa to instruct if you are canadian? I am looking to move to new york with my gf.
thanks in advance.

Instructing
 

I think the lack of CFIs now are causing some flight schools to hire foreigners (everyone getting hired at the regionals at 1000 hours TT or less even). I know the flight school where I live in Princeton, NJ (39N) which is only a 10 minute drive from Trenton just sponsored a Canadian to work as a Flight Instructor, worth checking out if you are in TTN anyway.

I would agree with you that ATP is great if you want to get done as quickly as possible. I went to ATP in Trenton too, the only thing is that it is a very small ATP site and you may have to work around available schedules. If you have some reason to prefer TTN, ok, but otherwise you might consider a larger ATP base like Atlanta (Fulton Cty) where they have tons of instructors and planes.

Good luck.

hallo there.
maybe is not so pertinent, but is the Teterboro flt school still there?
I start flying in the early 80s and I was committed to became a pilot.
Now I m in my fortys Cpt in EU and somtimes I miss my xcountry flt to Morristown upstate NY Atlantic CIty....
Thanks for your replay
