How many FO hours to apply for ATPL
Hi there,
I just have a question regarding hours logged on a medium jet as FO
For example a B737
In most CAA the requirement for the ATPL is 1,500 hours total time & also there is additional requirements night etc.
Is it correct that hours logged as FO on the 737 only count as 50% so to apply for the ATPL you would need 3,000 hours to meet the 1500 hour requirement?
If anyone knows I would appreciate a response
