Incorrect.
This is what is says....
(3) If serving as pilot in command in part 121 operations, has 1,000 hours as second in command in operations under this part, pilot in command in operations under §91.1053(a)(2)(i) of this chapter, pilot in command in operations under §135.243(a)(1) of this chapter, or any combination thereof. For those pilots who are employed as pilot in command in part 121 operations on July 31, 2013, compliance with the requirements of this paragraph (a)(3) is not required.
If it said soles "91.1053", you would be correct.
But clearly the reg is specified.
This is the difference of thinking like a lawyer..... and is why the regs, (CFR or State Statutes) are specified.
