does the time required for the 1500hr rule have to be done in the US? would it make sense to grind out those hours someplace without the rule?

- sokoloff 3y agoIt does not need to be done in the US. To get an FAA unrestricted ATP certificate, you need to build on top of other FAA certs, but you can use experience gained worldwide to satisfy all but a trivial amount of specifically called out instruction hours. If a pilot comes in with enough experience, it's a quick process to convert their foreign certs to FAA certs (which usually involves checkrides).
