Is ATPL(F) Needed
Good afternoon,
Just a quick question really. As I understand it, a (f)ATPL is not really any use until it becomes unfrozen, and therefore a proper ATPL which allows you to be PIC. Does this mean then, that, in theory, one could gain a first officer position with an airline in a Multi-Crew Environment with just a CPL(A) and Type Rating, but there would be no progression opportunity until said first officer had taken and passed the ATPL theory?
Thank you
