JAR-FCL (Joint Aviation Requirements for Flight Crew Licensing)

JAR-FCL (Joint Aviation Requirements for Flight Crew Licensing) are European standards that define the qualifications, training, and licensing requirements for pilots and cabin crew. They ensure that aviation personnel meet consistent safety and competence levels across European countries. By standardizing these requirements, JAR-FCL facilitates mutual recognition of licenses and maintains high safety standards within the airline industry. Essentially, it sets the rules for who can operate aircraft and under what conditions, promoting professionalism and uniformity in aviation practices throughout Europe.
