EASA ATPL (A) (H-IR/H-VFR) Theory Course
In order to be able to pilot an aircraft without weight restrictions with multiple crew as the pilot in command, you require an ATPL. So that the ATP Licence can be issued by the aviation authority, a comprehensive flight experience of must be attested (including 1,500 hours of flight experience, of which at least 500 hours is multi crew operation). Until the presence of the prerequisites, each applicant receives a CPL with ATPL theory credit, which is also known as a frozen ATPL. With this Licence all aircraft without a weight restriction can be flown as a co-pilot, for which the type rating is possessed.
As the pilot in command, aircraft may be flown in the commercial sector that are categorised as a single pilot aircraft. These are usually aeroplanes up to 5.7 tons, which are propeller driven.
To fly helicopters, which are defined by their approval as Multi Pilot Helicopters, as the pilot in command, an ATPL is also needed.
