Hi can anyone point me in the direction where I could find a list of approved Multi-crew type aircraft to count as hours toward an unfrozen JAA ATPL specifically does the Metro and Jetstream 32 count ??

Thanks
Pistin.

Yes the Metro and J31/32 count. The BE1900D doesn't.

The BE1900D doesn't.
Yes it does. If it is opperated as a 2 crew aircraft as per company procedures, it is a multi crew aircraft, and therefore counts towards the un-freeze. I know this because all my multi crew time was on king airs and 1900's, and mine got un frozen.
Cheers

Greater than 5700KG MTOW and greater than 19seat multi/turbine. Think this has come up before a few times a search should do the trick.

No it doesn`t,BE1900D is rated as single pilot multi-engine turbo prop,in JAA/EASA type endorsement lists,here is the link, http://easa.europa.eu/ws_prod/c/doc/List_of_Aeroplanes_class_and_TR_and_endorsement_list.pdf, see table 14

We have to differentiate between apples and pears here:

there's single/multi-pilot AIRCRAFT (SPA/MPA) and single/multi-pilot OPERATIONs. (SPO/MPO). An SPA can be operated SPO or MPO, while a MPA can only be operated MPO.

So it seems what you need is 500h in a MPO (either on a SPA or MPA), AND a MPA type rating on your licence; however that does not have to be the airplane that you did the 500h MPO in.

Yes..I believe thats correct

A colleague of mine obtained his multi-crew hours with Flight Precision flying their Kingair. As a previous poster stated..that company fly it multi-crew. But he couldnt "unfreeze" his ATPL until his LST on his next job which was on a B737.
