Can you explain it in human terms?
Here's the simplified version:

Normal PC is like a Type ride style, you are being checked on V1 cuts, single engine approach, steep turns, and so on. Every part is a "checking" and a jeopardize event. With AQP those things are more of a training events but the actual checkride is more of things you see on the line, such as normal procedure, or a failure of a system to see how you deal with it. You get more out an AQP since it's more of a training event as oppose to a checking event.

Is all your time Part 135 or do you have some Part 121?

Here are the requirements:
1,750​ hours, of which 100% must be fixed wing
1,000 hours multi-engine time
1,000 hours air carrier experience
1,000 hours turbine time

Pretty simple... AQP means All Quality Pass. Train to proficiency so if a airline is inclined they could spend 30 sims on someone to teach them how to fly any aircraft.

Advanced Qualification Program, the rest is for the most part correct. There is defined limitations for progress though.
