Eglin Aero Club is still in business and they do ATP Practicals, they have some twin engine planes as well. The only other Air Force AeroClub I can think of that has twins is the Hanscomb aeroclub. Oh wait, Maxwell has a twin at their aeroclub, but also i think they only have two planes total and we've all been to Maxwell, no need to go back

The instructors did mention that the program/examiner at the Addison? location in Dallas was tougher and more demanding. I would completely reccommend the Arlington one.
As for the seminole, after seven years flying the herc, it was a joke. I can't see anybody having a problem with it.

By the way, 3 of us are com-airing from CA to NJ for Harry because of his reputation. That guy in Raleigh should tell him how F'd up he must be.

I had Harry for my ATP check last year. Awesome guy. No kidding, YOU NEED ZERO PREP. He will walk you thru everything. Tip is mandatory...don't screw over your buddies later down the line.
To speak of Harry's rep, the day before I flew, 2 guys from McChord flew out for their practical. The week before, 3 C-20 Ramstein guys RON'd in Jersey, got their ATP and flew their G4 to depot for mx. Dudes literally come from all over the world to see him.

Definitely happy with the Sheppard Air prep for the written, although they aren't MAC compatible. I dusted off my vintage 1996 college laptop and was able to download and run their program, slightly slow, but that was okay.
As for the flight, I used AllATP's in Jacksonville. Two day crash course got it done, but not the most pleasant checkride. I was hoping for the prior-military breeze, but got something less than that. Oh well...

As for the Raleigh guy, well... if his attitude is to lay the "hammer" down on active duty guys, then I guess I'll drive to Jersey. It's unfortunate since Raleigh is only an hour away. I'd rather spend the extra gas money and not have to worry about the heart ache.
How much are people tipping Harry? Money isn't an issue, I just want to know the standard and what to expect; thanks!
