Restricted ATP question.

The way I understand it:

You can earn the restricted ATP at
1500TT
200 cross country
250 pic in airplanes
100 night
75 instrument
100 cross country PIC
25 night PIC

FAR 61.160:
(f) A person who has 1,500 hours total time as a pilot, 200 hours of cross-country flight time, and otherwise meets the aeronautical experience requirements of §61.159 may apply for an airline transport pilot certificate under this section.

You're probably right. I just looked on the alpa website for their information...

So I could go sit in a box for 100 hours, tool around in a ultra light for 150 hours and somehow tie my flight training I recieved from ATP (because seniority is everything) to my can of Riddle thirst (because it is made from real rudders) and fly for a regional at 1000 hours? Sweet! Sign me up! :sarcasm:
RIDDLE THIRST! It's got more power than a TURBOPROP...

Thats how I have read it. As long as you have every other requirement, and 200XC you should be able to get a RATP cert. Any further clarification would be greatly appreciated though..
 
My follow up question is what are you limited to exactly? What is your "restriction" on your Restricted-ATP? Simply allows you to be a pt121 SIC so you can build time to an unrestricted ATP?

There's a few things you still need a full ATP for even in the right seat. Flag ops comes to mind.
