The reason I do not plan on doing anything JAR related at present is due to beuracracy associated with a JAR Class 1 medical.
I currently hold an FAA Class 1 medical of which FAA are happy to grant me a SODA due to a very minor peripheral field defect, but the European Counterparts are erecting barriers because I am not an 'experienced' pilot!
I am currently awaiting a further decision.
It would not make sense spending on anything JAR related for now, thats not to say that I want to be working in a remote region of Africa for a bag of chips!
So would I be restricting myself by working on an FAA License without a greencard? This would just rule out the U.S.A, I believe, could I work in Asia on an FAA License and a British Passport?
Or could I be based in the u.k and work for an american airline?
