Are kraven på en första typbehörighet samma över olika typer?

Det spelar ingen roll om du är en privat pilot eller en ATP, kraven för en typbehörighet finns i Flygtrafik Pilot och Flygplan Typ Betyg Praktiska teststandarder , som gäller oberoende av flygplans typ.

I PTS står det:

Practical Test Book Description

This practical test book contains the Airline Transport Pilot and Aircraft Type Rating Practical Test Standards—Airplane. The Airline Transport Pilot and Aircraft Type Rating Practical Test Standards—Airplane includes Areas of Operation and Tasks for the initial issuance of an airline transport pilot certificate and for the addition of category, class, and aircraft type ratings to an airline transport pilot certificate. These Areas of Operation and Tasks also apply for the issuance of an airplane type rating to a private or commercial pilot certificate.

Du täcker i princip allt som behövs för ATP. Skillnaderna mellan de olika flygplanen kommer ut under det praktiska testet precis som de gör för någon annan checkride. Undersökaren (som kommer att skrivas i flygplanet) frågar dig om de saker som är specifika för varje flygplan, men det här är inte riktigt mycket annorlunda än han frågar dig frågor som är specifika för en Cessna eller en Piper under din privata pilotkontroll.

PTS anger allmänna verksamhetsområden s istället för att säga exakt vad som ska testas för varje flygplans typ.
