Can you count MPL PIC hrs towards issuance of a foreign ATPL? Looks like in FAA land, they let you take an ATP checkride on a standard MEP like Seneca.
So what about this?
Say you have an EASA MPL with a 737 TR+1500hrs. You quit the job, go to the States. Obtain FAA ATP with the hours accumulated with an EASA MPL. Then you will be able to apply to companies in the Middle East for instance as a Boeing type rated, because you have the FAA ATP with EASA MPL 737TR.
Or is it not possible because MPL PIC hours don't actually count towards issuance of a foreign ATPL?
This is getting confusing, but I'd appreciate any insight.
