Certified to fly more than a plane

than one type of plane at a time, so I guess it's legal in the US to be
able to do so.

I don't think most of us have the skill to fly more than one airplane at
the same time. Bob Hoover maybe. I know he can pour a glass of water
from a pitcher while simultaneously performing a barrel roll. :-)

Sorry I didn't realize that those words could be interpreted that way


What I meant was that in India if you're certified to fly, say, a 172,
you couldn't fly an A320 at the same time as well. They call it being
"current", if I'm not mistaken.

If you hear an Indian pilot say he's "current" on a 172, he'd have to
give that up to be able to find himself a job on a 777 even if he has
type-rated on the 777. Farcical, isn't it?
