I am just interested to hear what your ideas are regarding this. The modular route would be gain ppl the enrol on atpl groundschool or do ppl and hr building and have approx 150 hrs on enrolling on atpl groundschool, both much the same only difference is of course bulk of flying done either before or after groundschool. My dilemma is no matter what amount of hrs you have going into groundschool you are going to be approximately 6 months on the ground loosing those sharp and fresh skills even if you do manage a few hrs somewhere in amongst all that study. Are you really sharp enough or in any way disadvantaged taking on the cpl with a 6 month drought of flying behind you.
