School Description
When you compare the scale of ATP’s flight training operations to other flight schools, academies, colleges and FBOs, there's no wonder why ATP is leading provider of pilots to the regional airlines. * Flight Time: Over 11,000 hours of flight training and nationwide cross-country flight experience per month. * Certification: Over 4,500 FAA certificates issued annually. * Aircraft: 140 aircraft. 84 multi-engine, 56 single-engine, 1 Citation Jet. * Aircraft Orders: 10 new multi-engine Piper Seminoles to be delivered in 2008. 20 Diamond D-JETs on-order. * Flight Training Devices (FTDs): 36 multi-engine FTDs. * Regional Jet FTDs: 5 CRJ-200 FTDs (Dallas, Jacksonville, & Phoenix) * Graduates: Over 40 Commercial Multi-Engine Pilots with CFIs graduate per month. * Airline Placement: 362 graduates hired by airlines in the last twelve months. * Locations: 21 flight school locations across the U.S. * U.S. Market: ATP trains only U.S. pilots for the regional airlines–no distractions from international students. * Reputation: 70% of ATP’s students are referred by friends. * Flight Instructors: ATP Flight Instructors are the highest-paid entry-level CFIs in the country, with more multi-engine experience than any other flight instructors of comparable total time. * Value: No other flight school or flight training academy offers a better value than ATP’s fixed-cost, fixed time frame Airline Career Pilot Program. * Mechanics: ATP’s mechanics are the most experienced and highest paid in the flight training industry. On average, each ATP mechanic has been with ATP over five years. * Maintenance Centers: Five maintenance centers in Atlanta, Dallas, Jacksonville, Phoenix, and Riverside handle routine maintenance and scheduled inspections on ATP’s entire fleet. An on-site inventory of engines, propellers, avionics, and other components means that no ATP airplane ever waits for a part. * Bottom Line: ATP trains airline-ready pilots from zero time to 500 TT/300 ME with Regional Jet Standards Certification in as little as 10 months.

More About Us
ATP’s training programs are designed to provide our students with the most focused and intense career pilot training available. Our philosophy is to deliver airline-style training and flight experience at the very onset of a pilot’s training career. Each training flight is coordinated and monitored in real time by ATP’s centralized flight dispatch department, ensuring maximum safety as students gain real-world experience flying across the entire United States. ATP’s Airline Career Pilot Program includes 140 hours of multi-engine flight training, and incorporates regional jet training taught by regional airline pilots. The combination of real-world flying, multi-engine experience, advanced regional jet training, and airline-like structure provides ATP students with a solid foundation for a successful airline career. ATP is unique among flight schools because we quote an exact fixed-cost and complete our training program in 90 days from Private thru Commercial Multi with CFIs. We have placed more pilots with the regional airlines than any other single flight school, college, or academy. (Reference: ATP Airline Placements). Beginning in 2009, ATP will begin taking delivery of 20 D-JETs and will be the first training academy to offer actual logged jet experience to career pilot students. The combination of the D-JET experience, multi-engine time, RJ program, and the structure and real world experience of the Career Pilot Program will ensure our students are the most competitive and experienced pilots entering the regional airline market. ATP's management team draws from major airline and regional airline experience as both line pilots and training department check airmen. We understand the rigors of airline training and the realities of the airline industry. We structure our training programs to ensure our students are prepared to meet the demands of becoming an airline pilot.

Testimonials
Shawn M. Scanlon: I wanted to thank you for the opportunities and privileges provided to me during my training in the Airline Career Pilot Program. These past few months I have grown as a professional. I have been in the program less than 90 days and I have only my CFI single add-on and commercial left to accomplish. I am very interested in working for ATP as an instructor. _________________________________________________________________________ Gabe Keller: I attended ATP and graduated from the Career Pilot Program in mid-May. The level of professionalism and expertise I experienced at the Arlington, Texas location FAR exceeded what was advertised. I thank Kris Swan and Javier Centero for making such a challenging endeavor possible and enjoyable! Kris runs an extremely efficient program and Javier exemplifies professionalism in all his actions! _________________________________________________________________________ Douglas Brooks: I am pleased to be writing this letter today. Having started the 90 day Airline Career Pilot Program on April 14, 2008, I have today completed the program in 91 total days. During this time I have thoroughly enjoyed my time here at ATP-Arlington. Through all of the tough times there was always an instructor or administrator happy and willing to help with encouragement and or assisting to solve the problem faced.
