Apparently to get your ECAA ATPL you need to complete the full SIM course (5 sims and a check (Maybe 4 sims, can't remember), So even if you are current on the fleet you are applying for you will have to do the full SIM training in order to qualify for your ECAA ATPL. However if you resign and return at another date in the future for some reason, as some have done, then you only have to do much less training (something like Training SIM, Check SIM and a Line-Check) since you already have your ECAA ATP from before.
