Buster G, need min hours command etc for the ATPL to be issued but that doesn't stop you doing the theory tests and having them forever in your hot little hand. I reckon that shows only good things to an employer and saves the mad and stressful rush to get it later on when suddenly you need them. You can study em at home if you like too. I did both fixed and rotary wing after a few dodgy starts thru particularly dodgy characters thru (and no its not an advert just a really glowing recommendation!!) AFT in QLD,, they were and i spose still are very very good at it.
