I cant see your point.
the euros have always required you to have competent knowledge of
their airspace and be able to fly.

here in perth western australia we have a training school accredited
to issue JAR pilot licences and most seeking european employment go
out of training with the requisite european licence.

when in rome, roman rules apply.

if I wish to fly in the USA I can get an american licence after
passing the american requirements. or I can fly a certified australian
aircraft in american airspace on my australian licence under
reciprocal ICAO arrangements. not much difference.

thanks for the do***ent pointer. it will make an interesting read.
