The only reason atp cfi's pass quickly is because the examiners are on atp staff. They even flaunt this in the magazine ads. I have seen their training as well as pan am's play out. I found just the opposite to be true, their knowledge base was great but these guys probably couldn't pass a private pilot checkride with a real examiner because their flying ability was so pitiful. 2 90 day wonders worked at our school=2 damaged airplanes (both cherokees)=no more hiring of quick finish up cfi's.
