C208 A training
Hey guys,
I have been offered a job in Thailand to fly a C208[A] FO, I'm a Thailand citizen. I got my flight training in the US. [FAA CPL MEL SEL IR]
I wanna know is a Type Rating mandatory for flying a C208A?
Since its an amphibian plane is sea plane rating also an mandatory ?
Is there any place where I can get my training for C208[A] in the US or any country close to Thailand that offer the same !
Thx in Advance

it was 7 years ago but I am sure they would send you in the right direction. It was 5 hours in the aircraft and a OPEN wrighen exam. yea you can just do a conversion on you licence now .. best thing is give them a shout... I loved the plane it was like a 152 on steroids very easy to fly ..

On a more practical note, who in their right mind would fly a floatplane without having had appropriate training and an appropriate rating skill test? Nor a complexish turboprop without appropriate type training, test or not.

Did mine there 7 years ago, was very good. Smaller than most places but had a full motion sim and excellent instructors. It is not a type rating though, more of a type specific course to satisfy insurance and teach you how to operate the 208.
Yes, you need a float rating to fly an amphibious plane
