volition Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 Good news!! If you do you IFR training in the states, It's 100% transferable to a Canadian one without any flight test, or exam. :punk: :punk: :punk: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

volition Posted June 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2007 Of course you need to hold the rating on your Faa license. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost Posted June 24, 2007 Report Share Posted June 24, 2007 Of course you need to hold the rating on your Faa license. Still not sure where the info is in the cars and there are three guys who work for Cougar who hold Commercial Ifr and ATPL(H) FAA doing the Aero course and are writing the INRAT this week so they can do the ifr ride Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted June 24, 2007 Report Share Posted June 24, 2007 I'd double check that Volition. If a pilot with a day-VFR FAA licence needs training and the written to get a TC conversion, why wouldn't an FAA licenced IFR pilot? Would an FAA trained IFR pilot know that a lot of MOCAs on cross boarder routes increase on our side, if he/she wasn't trained or taught it? "Little" things like that can make a huge difference.

volition Posted June 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2007 Your right! It only applies when your 2 years are due, and you did the faa one, then you done have to do any check ride to stay current. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted June 25, 2007 Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 That's just wierd. Interesting loop-hole. Does it work for us going the other way though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Croucher Posted June 25, 2007 Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 Hmm - that sounds like the rule that allows an pilot with a Canadian IR to send TC their paperwork from abroad to keep their Canadian IR current without doing the exams or check ride again. Fixed wing pilots can exchange their ratings at the moment, but not helicopter ones as yet. phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm.. I was about to get my FAA IR converted into Canadian.. Not that it matters, but FAA does not have anything called Day VFR license. Only for people who train in Hawaii and Alaska.
