In all seriousness though. I know of an experienced Global Express co-pilot with CPL who flies all over the world with 3000 hours in GA and Global Express time trying to get his ATPL. Seems he cannot qualify because there is no Global E simulator in Australia he can be tested on. Unless he buys an Airbus, or 737, or Dash Eight, or similar turbo prop full type rating on which to be tested, he is stuffed.

Surely CASA must be aware of this anomaly and change the rules to fix this sort of ridiculous situation which affects a significant number of CPL pilots seeking to qualify for the ATPL flight test.
