man, passing those stupid writtens is easy. Anybody can sit down and memorize the book. just get the gleim and do a chapter every 2 days,, memorize it, i studied for about 3 weeks, took the atp written in 34 minutes and only missed 1 question,, and i think its cause i read it wrong. Just go buy the big red book and spend some quality time with her.
the hard part is putting it into real world application. like when you start flying for your first 121 operator,,, then all that silly "flying single engine in still air shiz starts to come to mind when the vis is 1200 rvr in good ole BOS.
