Guys, I expect it can be accurately stated that they will accept what the CAAV will accept. Correct, there is no upgrade program in place. I was guessing that starskate has an FAA type rating (applicable to both seats, my old US airline typed both pilots going through airbus training) which would mean some hours in line operations and a line check are all that are required. As far as what's legal, that's it, and I do believe that is where the bar is here and now. That and represent yourself as your ordinary knowledgeable airbus pilot in a SKYPE interview ...and manage a crazy sim ride.
