One of the first non-conversion ATPLs issued under the new part 61 system was through a non-RPT general aviation operator on the Do328. There are perhaps no more than five aircraft in Australia, and the simulator is overseas. How many Saabs and simulators exist in Aus?
If they can do it, then surely an RPT operator can pull their finger out and do the same. Or perhaps it is a conspiracy to leave cadets in the right hand seat permanently.....
