Default There is, in fact, a God....

...and he did NOT want me taking the ATP this weekend.

The plane broke on Friday with no avionics guys on hand to fix it. Ended up coming with Strep Throat and the flu saturday afternoon and spent the weekend in bed watching Netflix and slamming Ibuprofen and Theraflu.

Pushed back 3 weeks.

Careful on New Braunfels, completely evaluator dependent. We had one or two guys in the squadron get a pass for almost zero effort, but then had another pair of guys get the asshat DE who gave a 3.5 hour ground eval. Oddly enough the tool DE is a former member of our squadron, and is why people had stopped using New Braufels before. The school apparently prepares you for the easy DE, not the difficult one. I'd avoid like the plague.

Anyone?

I'm highly considering this option, too. Any words?

Search around, there are whole threads devoted to CPT and HPA 737 types.
Long story short, they are both good. I think HPA is doing sims in a different location from their ground school right now due to the SWA hiring ramp up not allowing them to use their training center. CPT has a good reputation for a quality product.

Since YOU are paying the school, and YOU are paying the DPE, you should specify who your examiner will be... and get it in writing.

Agreed--though, in this case, perhaps specifying who the examiner WILL NOT BE is the more important point. Good luck!
