I am a dual 28 year old US and German citizen and am thinking about a career in aviation. Given the fact that I have the right to work in both the US and the EU I am deciding how I should go about getting my flight training. That is, should I get both my FAA and JAA qualifications simultaneously or should I go for one first, then the other and in which order. I have lived most of my life in the US, but have been residing in England since February as my job has sent me to London.
If I were to take the FAA and JAA qualifications, would I need to undergo a medical examination from both an FAA AME and a JAA AME? Or does having one mean that you qualify for the other. The reason I am asking is because I will most likely need to go through the waiver process for a past medical condition I had. I'd like to know if I need to jump through two hoops.
Any advice would be much appreciated!
