tboy Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Do all countries have their own regulations, or is there any other countries that a FAA rated pilot can fly commercially in without going through the recertification process?Not looking to move out of country but am curious. If the opportunity presented itself, who knows. Troy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rick1128 Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Troy, A lot depends on the country of registration of the aircraft. If it is an "N" numbered aircraft you will need an FAA certificate to fly it. For other national registrations you will need either a certificate from that country or a Certificate of Validation from that country. In many cases, if you are not a citizen of that country, you will need to be sponsored by an employer to get either. I have seen certificates of Validation that are limited to a specific registration number or employer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tboy Posted September 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2007 Thank you Rick1128, "Being sposored by an employer" would be hiring on with a company from that country, or working for a US based company that has a contract overseas? Or both?Certificate of Validation this gives me another place to start on my research. I noticed a CV for Australia is three months, I assume that will be the normal time period for other countries as well. Troy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troy Troy, If it was a US company, the aircraft would most likely be "N" numbered. That has been my experience. The length of time it is valid depends on the country. All the ones I have seen were valid for a year. Australia usually issues a certificate after a checkride. It was my understanding that they issue a CV as a temporary certificate for a tourist doing a bit of flying or someone ferrying an aircraft out of Australia.

tboy Posted September 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2007 I had just read on a site that Australia was max 3 months for a CV. So that's probably for as you said ferrying in our out of country. Troy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
