Industry Update

At ATP we do not make empty promises or misleading claims. Despite the recent airline industry downturn, major airlines will still hire pilots due to attrition from retirements. Fewer military-trained pilots are available to fill these positions as they have in the past. This means more pilot positions will now be filled by civilian-trained pilots. With lower fuel prices and more efficient passenger capacity, airlines are improving profitability by replacing larger, older aircraft with more regional jets. Corporate and fractional operators are still hiring and poised for astronomical growth, with over $200 billion of corporate aircraft on order.

We will help you meet your goals and make your dream of a flying career a reality. With our extensive major airline, regional airline, and corporate experience, the management staff of ATP is in a unique position to provide training and direction. ATP has been training career-bound pilots for over 27 years and is committed to preparing you for a demanding, but rewarding career.
