Since no one else answered you, no they haven't. Some fo's that had the ATP mins and did initial or transition training this last year did the ATP at the same time. I don't know if they're on crack or what. They only any out a email asking for people's times a couple weeks ago. Don't know the numbers but possibly there were a lot of fo's that are right down to the wire on getting the needed time?

I hope the rumor of using ATP is just someone trying to be funny.

Are any of you guys going to be DECs, or is that rumor I'm hearing?
Learn the Systems of the Seminole, forget the B1900 or SF340 in the meantime, get the ATP, go back to Silver to relearn the Beech or Saab systems, and possibly into the sim to take what perhaps could be a proficiency check? Seems like we will have to go back to the sim anyways.

Don't they need a few landings from the right seat for them to be right seaters? If so how many DEC's are right seat checked out? I agree though I wouldn't be surprised if this happens.

Learning a Seminole for the pure purpose of "checking a box" with the new rule is absurd. You're making a jeopordy event that much harder.
It is only fair to allow the FOs to take an ATP/Type ride on the equipment they are currently qualified to operate.

We've already had a DEC fly as an SIC for several months. Did IOE from the right seat, flew from the right seat, made captain pay.
