SIC endorsement on FAA licence

[winkwink]

In my own experience, I've been issued with an SIC on a Falcon 200, and Lears 31 and 60 following the required training by ATPs who held the rating and neither of whom were CFIs. The types were then added to my ATP certificate by FSDOs in the USA. Unless things have changed and we haven't been informed (and the FAA rarely makes an unnecessary change, unlike the fannies who run Eurpoean aviation) then that system still prevails.

If you can document training on the F2TH and 3 takeoff and landings in the aircraft signed by the PIC, all you need to do is go to a FAA FSDO and they will issue you an SIC F2TH Type Rating. The SIC type rating is widely misunderstood as there is no checkride, it is more of a paperwork exercise....

Hello Guys,

Wonder if any of you can give me some clarity on a matter I have.

I’m trying to get an FAA CL604 SIC type done. Regarding the takeoffs and landings that’s needed before an endorsement can be given, are these takeoff and landings done in the actual plane? Also, does anyone know how long the course normally takes, TRTO that offers it (Apart from CAE) and possible cost.

Cheers

I have an ATP and typed. I would like to sign off my copilot for his SIC 61.55 type. Where exactly do I sign and fill out the 8710 for him. It just isn’t clear exactly what I have to fill out on his 8710
