The FAA is on board with this (I fly supplemental 121 where I often am not in the seat in legs greater than 8 hours, but still in command). You only need to subtract the other time when you were a copilot/first pilot, or not the PIC.
also don't worry about recency of experience, you could go over to Trans States, SkyWest, or some other regional airline to pick up a few months worth of flight time. A lot of regionals don't care when you last flew, they just care that you have a pulse, and I bet if you didn't have a pulse theyd still hire you
Thanks ghilis. I used your previous post to calculate hours. Sitting about 1400 TT. Need to do more work on PIC time based on MP code date. I suppose I could pull the restricted ATP with the 750 mil clause. Would that be worthwhile or should I start working on logging those 100 hrs on my own? Also, do you need a full ATP cert like you can get with some of those 2-5 day programs or just the written. Looking for example at horizon it just says written.
