Assuming that we are talking about EASA licenses and operations, It seems that there is a confusion between license issue (EASA reg Part-FCL) and operating requirements (EASA reg Part-CAT).
My understanding is that
A co-pilot restriction on a CS25 type rating will depend on the Operational Suitability Data published for that very type rating. To wave the restriction you must satisfy the requirements for that type rating.
Nevertheless, even with an unrestricted type rating, you may fly as a PIC for your airline only if
- you have a full ATPL;
- your airline has upgraded you after a formalized process that includes a command course.
(Theoretically, you may fly as a PIC for non commercial operations even without a full ATPL)
