No one should be paying for an MCC course because an airline’s flight department is too lazy to write a type rating course or induction sim program that won’t provide you with the qualification.
Part 61 took the worse bits of EASA and the worse bits of the FARs, rewrote them in gibberish and published a multi page document.
As you say a type rating course is much better than wasting time and money in a fixed based sim on a type you know nothing about.
