If you're talking a "FULL" type, I guess that would be correct.
But look at how many certificates state under limitations "CIRC. APCH.-VMC ONLY" as it refers to the type rating.
So does that mean I don't have a "full type", but a guy with 300 hours that bought his type rating at a flight school that offered it and had to demonstrate a circle is more qualified?

Even with a VMC limitation, you still had to demonstrate a circling approach on your ride, didn't you?

So if you don't have to circle, then the big maneuver difference between PIC and SIC types would be a no-flap landing, correct?

But possibly like I mentioned earlier, the ground school, etc.
I believe to get a "PIC type", the candidate also has to demonstrate taxing, as well as an RTO, either stopping on the runway, or taxiing off to resolve the issue depending on the situation the APD gave.
I know I've talked to more than one 767 FO that had to demonstrate certain maneuvers from the left seat on his ride, even though he'd never do them from that seat until he upgraded. Maybe there's been a change to the regs where that's not required anymore.
