Hello DVA fam,

QQ: Little confused over the additional ratings. I did the B737 FO written test and then wanted to get that additional rating so I can start flying the 737 for short flights. When I did the request it shows that you request to transfer equipment but doesn't shows "additional rating". Is that automatically done (after check ride) or do you loose your rating for 767? From what I've read I don't think so but just want to make sure. Thanks in advanced! smile

The request is showing as a change of program. I assume you want me to change it to an additional rating request? Either way you won't lose your existing ratings.

Cheers!

Hiya Luke, I did not see the option to request additional ratings, but yes, that is what I need, not to change of program. Thanks.

BTW: Should I withdraw the request? Cheers !
