I suppose it depends on the Regulator concerned, but what are the general rules about which seat you occupy when undergoing a type rating course? In other words left or right seat for a P1 rating. Is that decision up to the provider? Or is the decision up to whoever is undergoing the training? I recall Boeing in USA require the type rating be conducted in the left (command) seat regardless of experience.
On the other hand in Australia, it is acceptable for the command type rating to be conducted in the co-pilot seat. That is because Part 61 requires type ratings( 737/Airbus, for example) to be "command" not co-pilot ratings since there is no provision for a co-pilot type rating. For new hires to an airline who will be employed as co-pilots, the company trains them as a command type rating albeit in the co-pilot seat.
