Assisted T/O and Landings

Airlines in the USA also have similar restrictions regarding T/O & Ldgs for new Capts and it depends on the airline and it's OPSSPECS approved by the FAA.
A new Capt usually has to do all T/O and Landings for the first 100 hrs on type as PIC. There are also Green on Green restrictions. A new Capt with less than 75 hrs on type cannot be paired with an F/O with less than 75 hrs on type. Furthermore there are many conditions listed in the in the FOM where the Capt is required to do the T/O & LDG. If these conditions are not an issue the the Capt may give the F/O the T/O or Landing.
