[QUOTE=wing-man;11494952]You can not get the type rating in one check ride. [QUOTE]
wing-man,
Not sure what you mean. I know someone who got their initial FAA ATP and a type rating which were issued on the basis of one check ride. Of course, they had to take an abbreviated course (they had flown the type overseas) at a training organization prior to the check ride.
I didn't mean to say a person can walk in off the street, jump in a sim and get the ATP and type rating in one session at the training organization with no prior sim sessions. A person must be recommended for the check ride and no training organization will do that without seeing how the applicant performs.
I didn't explain myself very well. I meant that the check ride for the ATP and the type rating don't have to be two separate events.
