§121.436 Pilot Qualification: Certificates and experience requirements.
(a) No certificate holder may use nor may any pilot act as pilot in command of an aircraft (or as second in command of an aircraft in a flag or supplemental operation that requires three or more pilots) unless the pilot:
(1) Holds an airline transport pilot certificate not subject to the limitations in §61.167 of this chapter;
(2) Holds an appropriate aircraft type rating for the aircraft being flown; and
(3) If serving as pilot in command in part 121 operations, has 1,000 hours as second in command in operations under this part, pilot in command in operations under §91.1053(a)(2)(i) of this chapter, pilot in command in operations under §135.243(a)(1) of this chapter, or any combination thereof. For those pilots who are employed as pilot in command in part 121 operations on July 31, 2013, compliance with the requirements of this paragraph (a)(3) is not required.
(b) No certificate holder may use nor may any pilot act as second in command unless the pilot holds an airline transport pilot certificate and an appropriate aircraft type rating for the aircraft being flown. A second-in-command type rating obtained under §61.55 does not satisfy the requirements of this section.
(c) For the purpose of satisfying the flight hour requirement in paragraph (a)(3) of this section, a pilot may credit 500 hours of military flight time obtained as pilot in command of a multiengine turbine-powered, fixed-wing airplane in an operation requiring more than one pilot.
(d) Compliance with the requirements of this section is required by August 1, 2013. However, for those pilots who are employed as second in command in part 121 operations on July 31, 2013, compliance with the type rating requirement in paragraph (b) of this section is not required until January 1, 2016.

In typical F9 fashion, not even close. When I was hired the question was asked, "Why not just type the new hires?" That is a privilege reserved for CAs. Training event...Fast forward a few years...FAA now requires all FOs to be typed, but the SIC type is good enough. The question was asked, "Why not type the FOs without the SIC only limitation?" Well FOs might start leaving if we type them...Training event. Fast forward a few years. The FAA now requires all FOs to be typed SIC limitation no longer flies. F9 determines this will make 3 training events so instead of typing FOs as they come thru training, we will wait for them to upgrade. Well a bunch haven't upgraded and they have 4.5 months to get everyone done while running classes of 16ish new hires a month plus upgrades plus PC/PTs. So basically a bunch of folks are going to get pain to sit at home and wait for their type. Of course the type has a VMC circle only...so we will be adding training event number 4 in a couple of years when the FAA decides they no longer like that limitation.

Just applied and planning on attending the Denver career fair in September. I've spent the last 19 years as a part 91 Aviation Department Manager/Chief Pilot. Things are not looking good at my employer. All flying has been two pilot crew. No 121 and a little 135 time. Frontier looks like a perfect fit for me. Family in Denver, and Orlando. I live in the Midwest so ORD would also work. Took me a week to read this entire thread! Thanks for all the great insight. This sounds like a group I would like to work with. Wish me luck.

We are in for some serious times while we get our pay back into the realm of reality, but I still like my job and the people I work with. It's what you make of it.
Good luck!
