Licence Conversion
“Conversion of a foreign licence” for FAA/ICAO License Holders to EASA Part-FCL
The Special Offer Courses cover all required subjects in order to convert a foreign ICAO licence to an EASA licence. As in all of our distance learning courses, the concept of “blended learning” is applied: The students learn with the most suitable written material, supported by Tele Tutors and our e-learning and information platform over the internet. Therefore the theoretical training does not require your physical presence. The practical training takes place at the international airport Zürich-Kloten and the Horizon simulator in Kloten.

Duration
