"Airplane Multiengine Land" Category and Class Ratings
B-737 Type Rating
("B-737 CIRC.APCH.-VMC ONLY" is the only permitted limitation for the "B-737" type rating requirement.)
"English Proficient" limitation.
Plastic certificate (plastic not required if the certificate is a valid temporary certificate.)
No that's not what their minimums say, cuz I just looked tonight...
Certificates/Ratings: U.S. FAA Airline Transport Pilot Certificate. Unrestricted U.S.
Type Rating on a B-737 not required for interview, but required for employment. "B-737 CIRC.APCH.-VMC ONLY" limitation is accepted.
