ATP Written software?
 
Just wondering if there is any ATP written software, similar to Sheppard Air that might be free to download, specifically current test bank questions.

Dude,

Spend the bucks for the Shepard Software! I used Gleim and another software program for my ATP and Sheppard for my FE--no comparison! I never found anything free on the net worth a darn.. just my $0.02 worth

Dauntless software has some excellent products.

I've never heard of Shepard, but I've used Dauntless and it's just fine. Not expensive, either. Can be found at www.checkride.com

I don't recommend Dauntless. Try Sheppard or Gleim instead.

Really? What did you not like about Dauntless? I used them for everything from PPL on up.

cfii2007 11-13-2007 02:55 PM

I like Dauntless better...well...its cheaper anyway.

I found a few incorrect answers and explanations in their ATP question pool. I reported them, but they did not acknowledge or fix the problems. I gave up on them and went with Gleim.

Wow. That's news to me. I will have to pay better attention. I don't suppose you remember which questions you are referring to, do you?

Sheppard for the ATP,,,,,,94% FLY SAFE T.C.

BZNpilot248 11-14-2007 10:56 AM

Go with Sheppard! Trust me you won't regret it. I've got both Gliem and Sheppard - hardly a comparison. 3 days of study and a 96% with Sheppard.

I used the ASA prepware..... it was fine. If not a bit pricey.

DamonMeyer 11-14-2007 11:51 AM

Where does ASA figure into the ATP prep scene? I've used their prep guides for PPL & Instrument, currently going through the 2008 commercial written prep guide. Are any of the others a better value?

There's a few, I don't have them written down anymore since they expressed no interest in correcting them. I do remember that a good example of what I'm talking about is question ID# 2615, if you want to look it up in the software. Check out some of the other DC-9 alternate planning questions as well.

Sounds good.

Maybe a little off topic, but what about the ATP (school) prep course for the atp written. How does that work?...is it good?...is it magic?...is it worth?

I didnt use that,but i read some responses from people that did and they seemed to be pleased with the results,ie.passed. From what i recall,they have taken out a lot of the questions that you wont get anyway,then they sit you in front of the computer all day looking at the question and answer. One day program i think and about 2-300$ Good luck FLY SAFE T.C.

cfii2007 11-15-2007 01:29 PM

$295 .................
