First off, I dare you to even think about doing it in 3 months. Secondly, take a look at the total cost. We will do a ridiculously primitive calculation and say that the whole cost ($45,000) is multi engine, dual and you log 180 hours. It is still $250/hour. I have found a couple places that are renting Seminoles/duchesses for $210/hour and the instructor is $40-$45/hour. So you could do it for THE SAME PRICE. That is assuming that you are smart enough to not need books and ground school; you have no cost of living expenses other than a car; You don't have an apartment; you don't need charts; the place you are renting the pane doesn't require insurance, and you are actually allowed to take the plane out by yourself to build X-c time when your TT is still less than 150 hours; You don't need to take writtens; you don't need to fly an SEL to get your SEL ratings and you have a red cape coming out of your butt. If you are frugal and have a lot of friends with multi-s than maybe; If you are not in any rush, maybe; and if you have the awesome ability to p!ss AvGas, maybe you can save a little money, but Thousands, not even possible.

You still don't get it because you don't want to get it. The only reason that someone would post a thread like this is to argue. And the only reason that you continue to argue is that you like it. The only reason that this isn't case-closed for you is that you have no sufficient evidence to back up your position and purely do not like ATP. I'm not telling you that you have to like it, I'm asking you to produce some facts that show that it is not as efficient and as effective at getting you time and ratings as it has been portrayed by the company, by myself and by other people who have been there.
