At least that is what my research is telling me.
Here is a question I have on top of this.
I have over 1000hrs TPIC, however it is all single engine. I assume I would be fine after completing an ample amount (1000?) of SIC multi 121 time as most applications do not specify TPIC under 121 ops.
Is this assumption correct? or should I still be planning for upgrade ASAP and going back on reserve?
