[QUOTE=Bengalsfan]Is it worth applying to Continental without the ATP?



I am of the opinion that if you want to work for CO, go ahead and apply. Let those who make the hiring decisions decide. If you don't apply I can guarantee that you will not be hired. Many pilots, including myself, have seen pilots hired and wondered "how in the world he or she ever got through the front door. Additionally, I have known high time and well qualified pilots that have never gotten an interview. It is one of the mysteries of life that few will ever know. I think that most majors want the ATP written so I would suggest a weekend prep course and at least get them ASAP. The actual ATP could probably wait.
Good Luck!
