Are new hires required to get their ATP license before starting class? Or will they get the ATP when getting the SIC type rating?
I have the ATP written and minimums, and I heard someone at my local airport saying that Republic will ask you to get the license before you start class, is this true? That would require a couple thousand dollars that I don't have
You do not have to show up to class with your ATP. They will give it to you during your checkride.Are new hires required to get their ATP license before starting class? Or will they get the ATP when getting the SIC type rating?

There are a couple of differences between the ATP w/ PIC type and the SIC type. With the SIC you do get two re-trainings and with the ATP, you do not. In addition to the SIC stuff, on the ATP ride, you must also taxi, do a single engine go-around and aborted takeoff.Originally Posted by CptGSXR
Is there any real difference between the SIC and ATP rides? I was told that during an ATP ride it's a normal checkride with no retrains allowed. I know that during intial training many companies give you 2 retrains during your ride.....not sure if that would be the case in a SIC ride or not.
It all comes down to they only have a few APD's (can do ATP ride and full type) vs many sim check airmen who can do the sic type. If you don't need the ATP they schedule you with a check not an apd

Please reread the previous few posts from people that have just gone through the hiring and training process for the correct answers and stop listening to "people at my local airport". How more succinct do the responses need to be?!?!?!?!

You realize that Purdue is 40 percent female? That puts about 8000 females on campus. Throw in the Asians that are there to study and only study, and your odds are pretty good. That picture was probably taken at Embry Riddle.

If they are not PIC typing guys with ATPs they are going to be very disappointed come August when those folks become pumpkins. The reg no longer allows SIC types.

At least on the Republic cert, almost everyone can do an ATP ride now, not counting the FS instructors.Quote:

The new requirement is for the ATP rating, not the type. The guys that already had ATPs with SIC types before the rule came into effect are not getting PIC types until they upgrade.Originally Posted by cencal83406

This is the category I am currently in.
