Transferring type ratings from TC ATPL FAA ATP

[dumbbell daddy]

Hey guys. Recently converted my TC ATPL to FAA ATP and transferred all my jet type ratings. Does anyone know if you are able to exercise the privileges of those type ratings as PIC or SIC (if current in Canada) or would you still need to do an FAA 61.58 ect?

AC61-135A is a bit vague. It's a bit of a grey area. The FSDO office I dealt with isn't sure, but they seem to believe you can still act as SIC in Part 91 until you're due for a recurrent. I Called Oklahoma and I'm waiting on them to get back to me.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Yes (SIC) and No (PIC). You are required to due at minimum a Biennial flight review on each aircraft for which you are rated to act as PIC. Biennial Flight Reviews can be satisfied with a PC under 14 CFR 61.58.

The FSDO specifically warned me about this when I converted my Canadian license. (14 CFR 61.56).

(c) Except as provided in paragraphs (d), (e), and (g) of this section, no person may act as pilot in command of an aircraft unless, since the beginning of the 24th calendar month before the month in which that pilot acts as pilot in command, that person has—

(1) Accomplished a flight review given in an aircraft for which that pilot is rated by an authorized instructor and

(2) A logbook endorsed from an authorized instructor who gave the review certifying that the person has satisfactorily completed the review.

(d) A person who has, within the period specified in paragraph (c) of this section, passed any of the following need not accomplish the flight review required by this section:

(1) A pilot proficiency check or practical test conducted by an examiner, an approved pilot check airman, or a U.S. Armed Force, for a pilot certificate, rating, or operating privilege.

(2) A practical test conducted by an examiner for the issuance of a flight instructor certificate, an additional rating on a flight instructor certificate, renewal of a flight instructor certificate, or reinstatement of a flight instructor certificate.

(e) A person who has, within the period specified in paragraph (c) of this section, satisfactorily accomplished one or more phases of an FAA-sponsored pilot proficiency award program need not accomplish the flight review required by this section.

(f) A person who holds a flight instructor certificate and who has, within the period specified in paragraph (c) of this section, satisfactorily completed a renewal of a flight instructor certificate under the provisions in § 61.197 need not accomplish the one hour of ground training specified in paragraph (a) of this section.

(g) A student pilot need not accomplish the flight review required by this section provided the student pilot is undergoing training for a certificate and has a current solo flight endorsement as required under § 61.87 of this part.

If you take a job in the US with a type you already hold you will only be required to do a PC in SIM, not the full type rating check ride (14 CFR 61.31).
