Good luck.
I think i may be able to help here, since i have a ALTP (based on the British exams) the problem is and i`m not going to start with the "who did it to who first bit" but niether europe or the US will accept the others licience, to obtain a jar you would have to take all the writtens(and trust me they are not like the FAA ATP written) plus do the nesessary check rides, and they don`t have a "all in one and one for all time" instument rating, every year you need a seperate IR check. also they don`t allow the F/O near the plane unless he is type rated, all in all its a much harder licience to obtain and therefore a lot more expensive, if you have say 2500 hrs heavy jet time it will cost you about 15, 2 20,000 pounds, the person above who said from scratch a British licience would cost 60, 000 pounds i`d say more like 100,000.
