Logbook certification for GCAA conversion?

[Sidd622]

Hey! Just moved back to the UAE after having lived and flown in the US for the past decade. May have an opportunity to instruct for a flight school here, but they want a stamp/seal in my logbook to show that it is certified before they apply for my GCAA conversion. Problem is I tried to get said stamp/seal in my logbook before I left the US, however admins and management at the Part 61 school I instructed for said they'd never heard of such a thing. Looked around and seems like CFIs from other part 61 outfits face the same issue when they try to get a conversion somewhere in the world that needs a certified logbook. I know this has been asked on this forum a couple of other times, just trying to see if anyone's found any solutions?

P.S.- I know I can get a letter of validation from the FAA about my ratings and licenses, but the conversion here requires the logbook to specifically verified.

Contact the Chief Pilot/Instructor you used to work for and explain the situation.
Try and get a copy of the school records indicating how much you have flown.
Thats the whole reason for the logbook verification, make sure it’s legitimate time.

Thanks B2N2! If the need arises again I'll talk to the chief pilot of the outfit where I used to work for and see what he can arrange.
