CB,
Mea Culpa. I see where you got that information.
There is indeed a paragraph which states "different terms apply to ATPL(A) holders with a minimum of 3,000 hours flying experience as pilot of public transport aircraft over 30,000kgs MTWA on scheduled international or similar routes, including a minimum of 1500 hours as PIC."
I just drive an ERJ (MTOW 48,500 lbs).
PEACE
