Since an ATPL allows you to fly with any airline, whereas an MPL is specific to say QR bonded 5 years initially on A320, does anyone know if at 1500 hrs you can convert the MPL to an ATPL just by writing the exams or do you need to gain further PIC time to satisfy the ATPL requirements?
Only reason I ask is because as a FO, you will not be gaining PIC time, or can you if CPT signs off that you were PF????
Just saying, spending a lot of money and being guaranteed job is great even with a 5 year bond but anything can happen in the industry and the airline.
Any help would be appreciated thanks in advance!
