ATPL=Airline Transport Pilots Licence,geddit??.If you want the to be a pro at this game you will need this licence.It's not rocket science but there is a lot of stuff to learn and yes a lot of it will be forgotten in the course of time.Remember that your grounding in the theory SHOULD be far more in depth than a ppl,you are supposed to be a pro! It annoys me when poor little rich boys in flying schools(usually with daddy paying)bitch and moan about all the irrelevant stuff they've got to learn.They want to prop up the flying club bar in Jersey and watch people swoon in awe at the steely eyed young ATPL but they don't want to actually do any work or acquire any knowlage to justify the kudos.
Sure, it would be better if it was all relevant stuff, but lets keep it fairly difficult folks.We don't want anybody to be able to do it do we?How could we impress the ppl's with our awesome understanding of second sector climb performance then?
