Thread Revival - Question about Part 135 minimums
The new restricted ATP minimums allow military pilots to obtain a restricted ATP with 750 hours of flight time, but Part 135 minimums require 1,200 for PIC. Does this mean a restricted ATP holder can serve as SIC for an airline, but cannot serve as PIC for a Part 135 operator?
I may have a lead on a corporate job, part 135, and if I am reading the regs correctly, I qualify for SIC with just a commercial and IFR currency. Would a type rating checkride with a corporate operator serve as the ATP checkride? I've heard of guys who get the King Air type rating in the military at a civilian training school being hooked up with an examiner to sign off the ATP, would the same be available with an initial type for a corporate operator?
