EU or JAA protect their pilots very well!! how, first you need to get the JAA exams 14 of them. VERY COMPLICATED,,,I'm working on it
. Then a check ride in the airplane if you are typed and have 500 hours of multi crew enviornmet time. Other wise if you dont have a type rating then you need to take 2 check rides one for CPL and the other one for IR/ME. the hole thing will cost around 10-15K brithis pounds not us dollars guys.
The other problem is, work permit. I have it and it is very hard to obtain it. The third and most stupid one I think is that most of the airlines in Europe require you to speak their language,,,,,,,except the Low cost carriers.
good luck
I was an American pilot with 250 hours and converted all of my licenses to JAR. The conversion cost me exactly 15,000 dollars. 8000 for the ground and 7000 for the flight portion. UK is expensive, that is why I didn't attempt to do the Flying there, just the ground.
