CPT (likely in ATW, possibly in ATL)

a few days off

5 sims, 2 days off, 5 sims, 2 days off, 3 sims, loft, checkride.

a few days to a few weeks off then two trips of OE. All goes well you’ll be signed off in about 25 hours.

you’ll probably be at the Hampton in ATW. Decent location by the mall, but If you can drive, drive. it’s very helpful for getting groceries/dinner. The shuttle will happily cart you around but having your own car just makes life a lot easier.

ATL you’ll be at the Sonesta by the airport. The hotel itself is relatively nice. Fridges in rooms, microwaves in common areas every other floor. I would not recommend leaving the hotel after dark. There is plenty around to eat but groceries are a hike, I would plan on using Instacart or something.

Assuming no delays/hiccups you’re looking at probably 2 months from day 1 to normal line flying.

Appreciate the info.

Does anyone have info on how commutable the lines are out of the different bases? Is ORD more commutable than IAD, etc.?
