New Type Rating Regs?
Has anyone else heard about new training requirements for initial type ratings for those who have no time in type? The new regs as proposed would mandate that a person with less than 500 hours time in type would have to do all the standard ground and sim training with a 142 school, then go do 2 IAPs (1 ILS, 1 non prec) and one take off and one landing.
If one has more than 500hrs in the airplane as SIC, then the standard upgrade training is all that is required.
