I'd like to work as a pilot in the US, so I don't need to know how to convert FAA certificates to EASA equals.

I know that. But I think when I'll have got the GC the TSA approval will be a simple formality ( a form, fees, fingerprints ). Thanks guys. Because I'll come to the US the next summer, I'd just like to see differences between European and American charts. Skyvector should be a good idea ...

I have a simple question : what is the best between a DPE and a FAA inspector to pass all required checkrides ?? One charges for his service ( ~4/500$ the exam ) when the other doesn't charge ( public mission ). Do you have websites to see sectional charts in the US, because I will surely come...

Yes I know these things. There are several AME approved by FAA who work inn France. I'll pass by one of them before going to USA. I know what is the TSA approval for aliens too. But the principal thing is to work legally with a GC, even if you must make several process for aliens.

Actually H1B are delivered with a selection with the file. USCIS must respect a quota of ~60000. The lottery is for delivering the Green Card, and Trump could delete this lottery. Wait and see ...

I have both passports and I was born in Algeria, so I'll participate as an Algerian, even if I live in France. I know my plan is so far because of the probabilities of the lottery. For your info I have a plan : pursue engineering career ( a career with which you can come to the US with a H1B )

The universities where I'd like to study are located in big cities or suburbs ( LA, Boston, Nashville and Silicon Valley ). The airports located near these universities are towered, and ILS-able, etc. My first idea is to pursue the degree and the time building and when I'll have finished I will...

The chief pilot has said : - 172L for IR and CFII - 94$ - PA28 Arrow for CPL and CFI - 125$ - BE76 Duchess - 195$ All prices are wet, they include fuel and insurances. I know I will need to collect feedbacks from students, find a good CFI and spend a few more than 18k. If you want look at...

I have seen prices ... :eek::eek: 63000$ plus 8900$ per year plus cost of life ... I prefer pay ~3500$ per year with institutional scholarships plus ~18k$ for the flight training. Live in Paris during the next year will cost me ~800$, so I'm able to add a few of money to live in DAB ( a middle...

The school is Air America, located in KDAB, FL. Their website shows the price of each prestation and we must consider I'll be PPL with ~70/80h. The school has told me 4055$ for the IR, 3325$ for the CPL, 1165$ for the ME, 3820$ for CFI and 775$ for CFII. For information, the 172L is rented 94$...

0-CFII : 50k --> Really ?? I have seen with several schools and I saw between 20-30k with all extras ( A flight school in Daytona Beach has purposed me 18k, without PPL and Time Building ) Bachelor : I'll study at least 1 year in France, if it's not more. And here studying is free. My parents...

I came to France when I was 3. I know what is the occidental culture, I am a French citizen. My first goal is to win the DV Lottery to get the Green Card. [ joke section starting ] But if hot girls - with big boobs :cool: - are in Miami, I will not refuse:D [ joke section finished ]. After high...

My principal solution is to do CFI to build my logbook time. In Europe the system is not the same : after the PPL, you pass the ATP Theory ( like the CPL/IR Theory ) and you pursue with CPL/IR/ME flight training, the MCC ( multi crew coordination, hasn't equal in US ). You can become airline...

Thanks for all your answers. For example when you land to "Le Bourget" LFPB, airfield similar to KSMO / KVNY, with a C172 you'll must pay 600$ of landing fees and handling fees ( FBO Signature ). Secondly, I don't need to live in a Muslim neighboor, just live near a mosque and a halal shop ...

I told about landing fees. Imagine you must pay 600$ to land to KVNY or KSMO or 100$ to land to KAVX :eek::eek: I maintain, taxes are lower in the US than in France ( sales tax : 20% :eek:o_O )
