Reduced ATP mins from Aviation Colleges...
Hey all,
I'm trying to get a second, third, fourth, etc opinion on reducing the requirements for an ATP certificate. I got my bachelor's in urban policy with a concentration (not minor) in Aviation and Transportation. Additionally I got a Master's from Embry Riddle in Aeronautical Science.
From what I understand you can reduce from 1500 down to 1000 for ATP if you went to an aviation college. I asked the FSDO in ATL and he says that it has to have been an actual Aviation program, not just a random aviation degree.
This seems unreasonable considering the curriculum at Embry riddle is probably very similar if not identical to the ones in the other aviation colleges.
Does anyone have a different experience or can give me a second opinion?
