Default flying in Argentina

It sounds like the exciting experience would be jumping through all the
flaming hoops of red tape:

QUALIFICATION

Flight experience: At least 150 hours as PIC 20 of it in the last 12
months.
Valid PPL and Medical (JAR FCL) Radio Operator Certificate
Valid passport (Minimum 3 months starting from arrival at Buenos Aires)
International health insurance accident insurance/return motion
Questionnaires form for announcing and general trading conditions signed
and dispatch.
For solo flyers sufficient Spanish knowledge and
Certified Logbook by the competent authorities and certified by the foreign
ministrty and the argentinine consular authorities of your home country.



I don't see anything onerous about these requirements - they are typical
of any tour group, modified for the case where the tourists are flying
through foreign airspace.

I would only wonder about two things:

1: the "JAR FCL" requirement. (is a US issued license, medical, and
radio license sufficient?)

2: What is this "questionnaire"? The sentence doesn't parse properly.
