Bertie is correct, bring over your UK Papers.. and if the UK requires a medical, bring that too. Take it all with your log books to the local Flight Standards District Office (FSDO) by appointment only, and they will issue a US certificate based on your UK license. Then all you need is a BFR given by any local Instructor that says you are good to fly solo. Scary isn't it. BT whats an UKpaper???? oh you mean my australian ICAO format pilot's licence? as a piece of trivia do you realise that there actually isnt an Australian Pilot's Licence as such. it is called an aircrew licence down under. I dont find it scarey. If I owned an australian certified aircraft I could just fly it to america, pass customs etc, and continue for a tour. no checking at all. for me to fly a US registered aircraft I need an FAA issued licence. we have the same reciprocal arrangement in australia. Stealth Pilot Stealth.. the original OP was UK, I believe We don't have licenses either.. we have Certificates. Pity, "License" has a certain je ne sais qois. Cheers |

Cheers this is a red herring but the licence vs certificate issue is quite important in australia. icao recognised things that mean you can fly overseas are called "licences" domestic approvals that can only be exercised within the country of issue are called "certificates" in australia General Aviation pilots have licences and ultralight pilots have certificates. our regulators seem to think that everything non commercial should live within the RAA environment. they are wrong for this reason!

hey bertie. since you're a flight instructor ....do the yanks still do the short course for an FAA licence based on a foreign licence? FYI: FAA form 8710 "Airman Certificate and/or Rating Application" part II: 'Certificate or Rating Applied For on Basis of' includes option D: 'Holder of Foreign License Issued By' They ask for Country, Grade of License, Number and Ratings. You can get the form at www.faa.gov. The relevant regulations are 14 CFR 61.75 - Private Pilot Certification on the Basis of a Foregin Pilot License. Good luck! Chris Gattman Portland, Oregon |
