In other words, having a restricted ATP in your case means nothing when it comes to upgrading because it will require 1,000 additional hours at a regional.
Ok. Got that. But then you still need the minimums though to be hired as a FO/SIC, i.e., 200 hours x-country; 100 hours night flight; etc. Or does that not matter, and will get those minimums as a FO/SIC? That's the part I'm still not plain on.

Ok, from what I'm seeing, even for a restricted ATP, you still need those minimums.

You need the mins to get hired. You can't build the time as an SIC. Lol.

Doesn't he need 500 hours of XC time since he has not done his training at a part 141 program? He would need to get an unrestricted ATP which would require the 1500 TT and 500 hours XC...

No. Any applicant, regardless of prior training, needs 200 cross country for a restricted ATP.

Yeah, that's huge because if you are just CFIing to build hours, getting 500 x-country is harder than you think.

Exactly. That's why I started the thread to make sure.
