ATPL: Multi-engine "class" rating?

[MRFarhadi]

Hey folks,

Dorval office got in talks with Ottawa and ...
*Drum Beats*
They said the ME flight test is *NOT* necessary. They issued the license right away, et voilla!

Kindest wishes to everyone who helped me through this and anybody who commented here.

Best,

Very nice to hear. Thank you for reporting your findings back as well!

How did you get them to review your file again? Did you just keep bugging the same person?

Bugging the same person would have *allegedly* resulted in another set of "unprofessional tones," which I wasn't a fan of.
I got in contact with another TC office, this time Toronto, and they escalated the matter to Ottawa. It was really quick this time, leaving me in shock (TC? Quick? What?)

Glad to hear it!

That's always how I had proceeded with conversions. Happy you were able to push back. I'm genuinely a little concerned at the obstinate and omnipotent attitude of your contact if your description is true- that's not what we need in those roles. If inclined you can submit service feedback through the TC website. I'd encourage it actually.

I'm concerned too This time, I was lucky.
I'll do that, surely. Thanks for the support and comments, Dan!
