Flight Training Adelaide Pty Ltd base in Australia. I know lots of Asian airlines send their cadets over there. Not too sure about Aussie ATPL distant learning.

When you say you want to sit the theory *test*, are you aware Oz uses more than one exam to cover their ATPL theory syllabus? There were four when I did mine nearly 20 years ago. The number of exams has varied over the years in approximate proportion to the number of name changes for the regulatory authority so damned if I know how many there are now.

CASA's website will have the details: Civil Aviation Safety Authority - Home (http://www.casa.gov.au)

I definitely agree with "Mynameisis"
Did me well, but for the systems exam I'd suggest reading widely - I used Rob Avery as well for that...

whiskybravo, there are 7 subjects in the Oz ATPL(A) syllabus.

Advanced Flight Theory, Maroochydore, does a very comprehensive course which is equally effective when done via distance learning.

I believe Rob Avery's systems (and his other) textbooks can only be bought in Australia shops and as you live in China, perhaps you can find someone to buy it on your behalf.

A good combination is to study Rob's systems text and practice Nathan's systems exam to ensure a good mark for this rather extensive subject.
