Nocetificate holder may use nor may any pilot act as pilot in command of an aircraft (or as ‘second-in-command of an aircraft in a flag or supplemental operation that requires three or more pilots) unless the pilot: a. Holds an airline transport pilot certificate not subject to the limitations in Sec. 61.167 of this chapter; b. Holds an appropriate aircraft type rating for the aircraft being flown; and ©. If serving as pilot in command in Part 421 operations, has 1,000 hours as second- in-command in operations under this part, pilot in command in operations under Sec, 91.1053(a)(2)\i) of this chapter, pilot in command in operations under ‘Sec. 135.243(a)(1} of this chapter, or any combination thereof.
