I flew with a few of those WAY….back in the day at the school I worked for. They came in to rent our twin, which we did at the time. “I graduated ATP”, “I got xxxx multi time”, “I got 1 hour in a citation jet”…that attitude. After flying with some of them I wouldn’t let them near the keys to the plane, never mind the plane itself. One couldn’t keep a stable VISUAL approach to landing without having the ILS guidance, forget about doing it with one engine.

ATP teaches people to pass checkrides, that is all. I know this because I did a private multi there ages ago. I got my multi, but I sure as hell wasn’t safe to go out and fly one along with anything said airplane could throw at me or fly me into and I knew it. That was the last training I ever did there and I went out and found further competent multi instruction thereafter.
