Just get an FAA ticket, then you can fly SET and MET below aeroplanes below 12501 lbs without a type rating (E.g. King Air 200 which is 12500 lbs)......but your ticket must be standalone, a piggyback one doesn't count.
As to whether this privilege carrys across to G registered aeroplanes (as it does for the SEP and MEP) I am not sure. I *think* that for private privileges it does.
