That's a very good question and I suspect I am not alone in not knowing the answer. Those 3 words on the front page of an ATPL carry quite a bit of weight with our European JAR/EASA cousins.

It looks as if the intention will be for CRE (SPHPCA) holders to become TRE (Type) and therefore be issued with the privileges to conduct MPA LPCs and ATPL skill tests on the SPA flown as MPA which would fulfil the conditions for JAR/EASA ATPL issue, as well as retain any SPA privileges previously held, such as for SEP/MEP examining. That's me reading between the lines.

However, as BillieBob states, there exists a problem, if that is the intention, if the term 'type certificated for a minimum of two pilots'..in JAR-FCL 1.295 and FCL.520.A continues to be applied.

I hope someone at CAA head shed has thought this through and can come up with some clear guidance.
