hi guys

I wanted to ask I want to take my atp written, my old ATP written expired now its been 2 years. I wanted to know where is a place in Chicago where i can take the ATP written exam, and help would be appreciated.
 
they give written tests at shaumburg airport (06C). of course i know they give those tests other places too. but if you are close to 06C, there ya go.
 
i know pilotmakers @ DPA is a CATS or Lasergrade place... go to both those place's websites and im sure there is a way to search by location. im sure around chicago there is a testing facility at almost every airport.

What are the requirements to take the ATP written?
Study.

And a photo ID with signature, permanent address, and date of birth.

I don't think you need an endorsement for the ATP written. Anyone?

As soon as I knock out the FOI/FIA, I'm going after the ATP. Might as well "get 'er done". I do hope to wait until I have at least 400 hours before I do the written though....just in case...but when I'm ready, I'm taking it. Then all I have to do is catch on with a 121 or 135 operation within 24 months and stay there until I take the ride...

Something tells me that (depending on where I end up doing the CFI thing) I'll end up getting the 1500 hours within 2 years...the part I'm worried about is the cross country time.

I've heard tell that you don't actually have to land 50nm away for it to count as ATP xc (something about helping military guys out), if this is true, how do you log it?

I dont know about military regs, but as far the FAA is concerned, its in the regs, clear as day, that you need to land 50nm away.
