I'm doing it right now. Applicant holds the equivalent of PPL from the
JAA. He's a 30 hour VFR only pilot.
Spoke with two local DPEs. Both said to prep him to the PPL PTS, as that's
what they have to test him to. No shortcuts. Oral and flight test as if
he was a low-time student pilot applying for his first ticket.
Simple. No muss, no fuss.

I've been asked to investigate, on behalf of some applicants to my
flying club, the procedure to take a non-US pilot certificate to a US
one. I got some good info from AOPA, but if there's anybody who's
actually been through the process and would be willing to share the
experience, I'd appreciate hearing from you.
