At first glance, converting your ICAO or EASA license to an FAA License might seem straightforward: submit forms, take a test, and start flying. But in reality, the process is much more complex, especially if you’re navigating it alone.
FAA approval requires your Civil Aviation Authority to respond to FAA Form 8060-71, but many authorities take weeks or don’t respond without persistent follow-up.
Misunderstanding critical forms like FAA Form 8060-5 or missing steps in TSA clearance (for non-US citizens) can lead to application rejection.
You must attend the FAA Flight Standards District Office (FSDO) in person. Being unprepared for this appointment can cause delays or denials.
At 14DAYPILOT Flight Academy, we’ve seen these common mistakes too often. That’s why we designed a clear, step by step program that removes the guesswork and streamlines your FAA License conversion.

We created the ICAO/EASA to FAA License Conversion Program to give you a clear, accelerated path to becoming an FAA-licensed pilot.
Here’s how it works:
Step 1: License Verification
We help you apply for FAA Form 8060-71 in IACRA and follow up with your CAA. Our admin team makes sure your documents for the FAA license are complete and processed efficiently.
Step 2: FAA Written Test Prep
Whether you're converting your Instrument or Commercial license, you'll need to pass the FAA written test. We provide personalized coaching, FAA-style oral quizzes, and study plans to help you prepare.
Step 3: Flight Training and Checkride
We review your logbook and skill level to meet FAA standards, then tailor your flight training program to cover required maneuvers and prep you for the FAA checkride.
Step 4: FAA License Issuance and Career Support
After you pass your checkride, you’ll receive your temporary FAA license, and we’re here to support your next steps, like hour-building, CFI training, or airline pathways.

FAA Success Story by 14DAYPILOT Student
(Source Image: Documentation by 14DAYPILOT)
Many pilots from Indonesia, Singapore, and the Philippines have successfully converted their ICAO licenses with 14DAYPILOT. As one of our students, Ghalda, a Cessna Caravan captain from Indonesia, shares:
“Hello my name is Ghalda, and I am a Cessna Caravan captain from Indonesia. I felt so lucky that I found this accelerated ICAO to FAA conversion program in 14DAYPILOT and managed to convert my Private, Instrument Rating and Commercial Pilot License to FAA in less than 2 months with them. The training at 14DAYPILOT was very intensive but the fact that I am flying in the skies of Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and so many more interesting destinations in the USA, sometimes made me forget that I am actually in school! 14DAYPILOT made my training very memorable here even though I have very limited time to stay in the USA. Thank you for having faith in me!”
Stories like Ghalda’s show that with the right guidance, your FAA license is within reach, faster and smoother than you might expect.
