C210 "RATING" Referred to by overseas employers
If anyone can shed some light:
I'm very aware you can't get a "rating" (to use operators' word) in Australia on a C210 as it is covered under the SEA provision. Design feature wise, if a candidate already has MPPC and RU endorsed on the CPL via Multi Engine Class Rating, then what exactly is considered a "C210 type rating"? Is this simply just time on type?
Just looking at general requirements with overseas charter operators and would like some comments on people with CASA licenes who've had to prove that they're "rated".

Fair enough question if you haven't had to deal with it before. The issue for the employer may be that their national regulator still lists type ratings for smaller aircraft, and you will need to convince them of suitable qualifications and/or experience. Pilots coming to Australia had the reverse problem with light multi-engine type endorsements until Part 61 came in.
Generally if you can provide logbook evidence that you have command time on the type, or a statement of some sort from a training organisation that you have completed training and demonstrated competency etc. etc. most regulators will be satisfied.

Great, thanks a lot for your response.
CASA have effectively created “type ratings” for every type and for the same type depending on the equipment fitted.
Sure, you can go and jump into something you’ve not flown before with the appropriate class and design feature qual’s. If you bend it, you’d be likely deemed not competent and subject to CASA action.
General Competency Rule (61.385)

FWIW, I was let loose on a 210 without anyone onboard. Had a CPL and 200 hours and no ******* idea. I still remember thinking to myself after takeoff, what the **** do I do. A few hours later im fairly close to realising I still don’t know **** all.

If you’re in the US get your training provider to print a snazzy certificate stating you’ve received x.x hrs of ground instruction and x.x hrs of flight instruction and you’re proficient in the operation of airplane X.
We used to do this frequently for foreign students.

The instructor who helped me transition onto a complex aircraft told me that CASA's aeroplane questionnaire is used by some operators as evidence that a pilot is proficient on type. It probably won't hurt to just fill one out for the C210 and have it checked and signed by a school.
