A person should be able to easily meet ATP mins as an FO for any 121/135 airline. Therefore, no 172 rental required.
The issue was ICAO mins for the ATPL which as a CA you must have if your airline fly's outside the us.

We had this problem a couple of years ago when the guys hired in the late 90s with little time went in to upgrade. They got to the oral and the check airman looked at their 8710 and showed them the door.
Right. But I was responding in regards to the 250 PIC requirement for an ATP.

Yeah so was I. People hired with 250 TT do NOT have 250 PIC. We had some people with 6000+ SIC but less than 250 PIC that were shown the door during their upgrade oral and told to come back when they had 250 PIC.

Default Hasn't this already come up - in this thread?

'COTriple7', did you read my previous post in this thread, or even the FAR you quoted, and even put in bold? I underlined the part I believe you overlooked regarding if you don't have 250 PIC before you're hired @ a regional.

Here's my previous response, though 'shfo' is on to it as well. Pay particular attention to the part I bolded (and the part you bolded, incidentally).

a. if you’re wondering what this “performing the duties and functions of a PIC”, think new line CA doing IOE. They are “performing the duties and functions of a PIC”, but the Check Airman sitting in the right seat is actually the PIC. If you’re just an FO, you’re not doing this. Essentially, you need 250 PIC.
The other big hang-up is the 250 PIC. You can't count 'student pilot' time, which is the time you spent getting your private (the first PIC you can log is your Private Pilot Check-ride), and the time in a MEL you spent getting your MEL (your first hour of multi-PIC is likely your CMEL-I ride). Just go rent a 152 if you need extra PIC time . . .

Is this how it works at Mesa? I am just curious because I was under the impression that FOs who were hired with wet commercials are second in command performing the duties of pilot in command while under the supervision of a pilot in command, or any combination thereof, which includes at least 100 hours of cross-country flight time and 25 hours of night flight time.

The regulation definitely says OR, not and, or including, or anything making signing pilot PIC the sole qualifier.

The problem is many Feds and POIs disagree on the intent of second in command performing the duties of pilot in command while under the supervision of a pilot in command.

Regardless, you cannot perform the duties of PIC if you don't have a PIC type rating which is the case of most FOs commuters.

Again, it states performing the duties of the pilot in command under the supervision of the pilot in command.

This is not up to the whim of a POI, or an individual FSDO. Here is a little more The administrator states the following:
61.55 (2) Except as provided in paragraph (g) of this section, performed and logged pilot time in the type of aircraft or in a flight simulator that represents the type of aircraft for which second-in-command privileges are requested, which includes—


(i) Three takeoffs and three landings to a full stop as the sole manipulator of the flight controls;


(ii) Engine-out procedures and maneuvering with an engine out while executing the duties of pilot in command; and


(iii) Crew resource management training.




(g) The holder of a commercial or airline transport pilot certificate with the appropriate category and class rating is not required to meet the requirements of paragraph (b)(2) of this section, provided the pilot:
(1) Is conducting a ferry flight, aircraft flight test, or evaluation flight of an aircraft's equipment; and
(2) Is not carrying any person or property on board the aircraft, other than necessary for conduct of the flight.

I'll let you figure it out.

As has been previously pointed out, this will vary a little from carrier to carrier, since each POI decides what that wording means. In some cases you will find some regionals that will accept SIC time as an FO toward that number, while at many more you will find that the meanign of that verbage is exactly as Sniper said, a baby CA doing IOE.

Example of how many are reading it, especially since the Colgan crash...
With an SIC only type rating you can not perform the functions of the PIC... did you sign for the release? No, case closed.

Ah never did I say an SIC could log PIC because yes obviously the SIC was not signing for the aircraft. This is a no brainer, and it is not the point. It isn't up to a POI to make this decision, as it is written in the Reg book signed off by the Administrator that an SIC is performing the duties of the pilot in command under the pilot in commands supervision.

Do POIs get to increase duty times, and minimum rest requirements because of the way they interpret the regulations also? Why are some individuals so hell bent on spreading misinformation?
