I'm sure you'll be well prepared after two entire months.

Overall for the general population, I share your exact sentiments. I also know that there are a "few" people that this type is perfect for because they can soak it up very well. Still there's that whole lack of "real" world experience, but that's what makes it so fun.

Which ATP are you going to......I did a "suprise" visit at two different ones, both Chicago & Orlando, was "NOT" impressed with their Flight Instructors at all. I had my financing all approved to go there, and cancelled my training prior to starting and the funds being disbursed, as I didn't like their attitudes.

They thought since they were a Flight Instructor they were "god" or "their **** didn't stink".....I was really shocked, and it was like that at both places.

Just wondering which ATP you are going to and if you have experienced the same!
