I'm currently a right seat instructor in CE 680 and the Challenger 300. I'm having trouble with the idea that the time spent training in these sims don't count as flight experience required for an ATP rating. I've learned way more flying right seat in the sim than I have flying in circles dropping sky divers.
Is there way to petition the FAA's ruling on counting formal level D training towards the total time needed for the ATP rating? If they will allow 100 hours why not 200?
Flying SIC in a sim is much more valuable experience than sitting right seat on a charter flight.
