Hi Can you explain what law if any says that a EU country has to accept another EU countrys authority.The UK CAA won't recognise Hungary as a suitable aviation training authority,even though they are EASA members.
Already Tried: i have sent the uk caa copies of the Hungarian type rating training organisations authority certificate but the ukcaa won't acept this.
Dear customer,
Thank you for your inquire.
EASA is competent for the control of the aircrafts, not for the recognition of professional qualifications.
Nonetheless, there might be an EU rule that states that States are obliged to mutual recognition of qualification in your field. Could you please specify which qualifications are you referring to?
I look forward to hearing from you.
Best,
Tiziana
can you explain the part of my question relating to the common european act requirement to accept each others authority please
You should know that there are detailed rules regarding mutual recognition but these are found in specific directives.
To be able to answer your question correctly I need to know what specific aspect of the Hungarian training you want the CAA to recognize.
This could be, for example, recognition of the professional qualifications of pilots or ground crew or traffic control or specific manufacturing standards of the aircrafts.
Or, it could be that the Hungarian authorities may have provided a certificate relating to safety or health.
If you let me know more details,I will be able to know which specific directive applies to your situation.
I look forward to your response.
Hi Tiziana
Please refere to the UK caawebsite Licensing and training trasition section.
Here it seems to say that uk pilot can seek aircraft training and ratings on a jar licence abroad in a european EASA member state.
The uk say i cannot do this in Hungary where my helicopter is registered.

Dear XXXXX,
The EU regulation Regulation (EC) No 216/2008 generally provides the rule of mutual recognition of Pilot qualifications.
Nonetheless, the EU gives to the EASA authorities the power to periodically make standardization inspections in the Member States to verify if all certifications are up to date. Whenever EASA finds out that one of the Member States is not compliant with the rules, the other Member States are given the power to limit or to refute the mutual recognition of certificate.
As a result of a EASA standardization inspection of April 2012, Hungary has been found responsible for not complying with the standard of the harmonized requirements for Jar FCL-2 regarding helicopters.
For this reason, the UK have decided to refuse the recognition of the certificates issued by the Hungarian aviation authority.
I am sorry if this is not what you were hoping to hear from me, but I am here to tell you the truth about what the law says.
I hope this answers your question. If it does, Please do not hesitate to click and accept it.
