I originally posted this in the GA discussion FAR forum, but I can hear crickets when I log in to that board.
So I live and work in D.R. Congo, formerly Zaire. My FAA currency is set to expire at about the same time that my contract here ends, so I'm planning on going back to the US to get a BFR. I'm working on the assumption that the FAA will not recognize a proficiency check by the Congolese authorities, but I haven't been able to post this question directly to the FAA because I can't find the question form on their website.
Part 61 doesn't mention checkrides in a foreign country or under a foreign authority, I can't find ICAO regs online, and I can't read them here because they're in french. Does anybody have any experience with this?
