FCL.510.A ATPL(A) — Prerequisites, experience and crediting
(b) Experience. Applicants for an ATPL(A) shall have completed a minimum of 1500 hours of flight time in aeroplanes, including at least:
(1) 500 hours in multi-pilot operations on aeroplanes;
(2) (i) 500 hours as PIC under supervision; or
(ii) 250 hours as PIC; or
(iii) 250 hours, including at least 70 hours as PIC, and the remaining as PIC under supervision;
I am wondering if all the hours under number (2) are required to be flown on a multi-pilot aircraft or if i.e. 180hours as PICUS on an MPA and 70hours as PIC, but the PIC hours on a SEP aircraft would satisfy with (2) (iii)
Thank you!
70 PIC hours on SEP should be enough, because technically you can’t fly as a PIC on MPA without ATPL, can you? Maybe I’m missing something..
