Actually Lanun, you don't hold a Airline Transport Pilots Licence, you hold a CPL/IR. There is no such thing as a Frozen ATPL, that's only a bull$hit marketing ploy to describe a person who holds a CPL/IR and has done the ATPL theory exams. When you have the requisite levels of experience, you may then apply for an ATPL.
Frankly at 200 hours, you shouldn't be allowed near an airline transport aircraft (and before all you 200 hr wannabes start screaming, I was in an airliner at 200 hours but I consider myself to have been completely unsafe at that time, not because I was any way below the standard expected but merely due to lack of experience. It takes at least 1000 hours to be trusted anywhere near an airliner in my opinion).

To the rest of you whinging about spelling and grammar, have you really nothing better to do. I've flown with plenty of pilots who can barely spell their own name but are excellent operators.
