Why Choose ATP for your Multi-Engine Rating or ATP?
More Experience & More Resources
ATP provides more multi-engine flight training and certification than any other flight school in the nation. Our aircraft fly over 8,500 hours each month, and more than 3,700 FAA certifications and ratings are achieved by ATP customers each year.
With flight training centers located coast-to-coast, and a fleet of 88 multi-engine Piper Seminoles, ATP is in a unique position to complete your flight training on time, at exactly the advertised cost.
Standardized Aircraft
All ATP aircraft feature the exact same avionics suite. All 50 2000-and-later model and 38 refurbished pre-2000 model Piper Seminoles are equipped with an HSI and Garmin GNS-430 moving map GPS.
Standardized Procedures
ATP operates within 22 different Flight Standards District Offices (FSDOs), but we use the exact same operating procedures under all jurisdictions. This attests to the quality of training and standardization that we uphold.
ATP-Approved Examiners
We work with the same Designated Pilot Examiners (DPEs) day in and day out—they are familiar with our standardized training procedures and checklists. This relationship ensures a low-stress checkride, for which you will be extremely well prepared.
