61.159 states that you can use up to 100 hours of sim time towards the 1500 hour requirement..

(5) Not more than 100 hours of the total aeronautical experience requirements of paragraph (a) of this section may be obtained in a flight simulator or flight training device that represents an airplane, provided the aeronautical experience was obtained in an approved course conducted by a training center certificated under part 142 of this chapter.

What is Part 142? I've done research and couldn't find much.

I have 96 hours in a full motion sim from military training at Lockheed Martin. Will this count towards my total time requirement for the ATP cert? There is no reason why it shouldn't.

Thanks in advance.
