Sorry in advance if this is covered in another thread. Retired mil guy thinking of getting back in the game after 10+ years out. I never got my ATP, so I would be doing the ATP-CTP course on my own or through a company willing to pay for it. I have heard most folks take the ATP written the day after completing the course. My question is this: when do you take the actual ATP check ride? Do you do that on your own or can you accomplish it during training/once you get to the line?

Thanks in advance.
