ATP Written

[Shortapp]

I am in the process of studing for it the hard way. I am in week 6 of study mode and I score an average of 80% on the practice test.
Wish me luck

I'd also recommend the ALL ATP guys. Started at 0800, done by lunch with a 92 and hadn't cracked a book before that morning. They also pare down the question bank considerably.

It is more expensive ($250), but you can write it off on your taxes and there's a lot to be said for not wasting 6 weeks studying a lot of irrelevant material.

Topgun - I'm surprised you had that much trouble... as someone said, they give you all the answers. BTW, an AMRAAM launch is a "Fox-3." Thought you'd like to know.

Buy the Gleim, study each chapter for 2 to 3 hours, that will take you two days max and than go take the test, saving 250 bucks.

It's not that frikin hard.
I am not the britest 737 typed ATP around and I did it in 3 days.

I spelled that rong on purpus, and what the he!! did you do to score that low, you must have tried to do the weight and balance and performance questions, I told you just to put B.

 

[L.Skywalker]

you're right, there i go trying to think again...

 

[pilotmiketx]

i failed it 3 times and finally passed on the 4th attempt.

Holy crap. Why would you admit that? Someone took the short bus to flight school.

"Yaaaay, I got my ATP, Yaaaaaay!" "Do you know any slow or special people?"

 

[L.Skywalker]

Somebody called me (Bert, my old avatar) a dumba@@!

I will now commence to activate the reverse seeing web cams on all of your computers to find out who it was. After this I will throw you into a pit filled with sharks with freakin laser beams attached to their heads. If that is unavailable I will throw you into a pit filled with ill-tempered sea bass.

**CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED** you, **CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED** the broccoli, and **CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED****CENSORED** the Wright brothers!

Let me rephrase without the *******************

Dam@ you, dam@ the broccoli, and dam@ the Wright brothers!

Sorry, but it just loses its meaning in translation.

ATP at 395 hours whatever

i recommend getting some one on one instruction. the atp is a difficult exam. i failed it 3 times and finally passed on the 4th attempt. get some one-on-one. possible do a groundschool.

Since when can you take the ATP written at 395 hours? Anyway, high recommendations from a TAB Express P-F-T chump.

I went to a two-day ground school put on by Bill Phelp's Airline Ground Schools when I got my ATP in 1989. It was the Part 121 course based on the B727. The class was taught by this fine British gentleman who was a retired British Airways PFE. I told him beforehand that all I had was lightplane experience and knew nothing at all about turbojets. He promised to slow down, but it was unnecessary because he was such a great teacher! I stayed in my motel room the day after class to cram. The day after that, I took the ATP and got something like a 93. It worked for me. I went back to Bill Phelp's with the same great instructor for the FEX written and did just as well on that exam.

Hope this helps some more. Good luck with the ATP written.
