Our requirement has been raised from the ATP-CTP or Restricted ATP to the actual ATP. This Candidate is at just over 1400 total time, but his Sortie conversion would bring them up to over 1700 TT.

Any help or guidance to help a fellow aviator would be appreciated.

Thanks.
IIRC all military UPT graduates are RATP eligible at 750TT mil hours (minus NOAA), the sortie conversion factor is not regulatory but a concession for candidates who have other desirable qualities (tactical/fast jet experience, leadership) that they would not meet otherwise.

Is the 1400 mil hours or a mix of both?
