Well....

If someone gives me a gouge or even correct study materials a couple of days before the Panamanian ATP written, shouldn't be a problem.

A 600 item psycho test sounds like the MMPI (Minnesota Multi-Phasic is 600 items long). If so, I have had no problem with that the two times I took it in the past.

The T&C document says that all Expats must take a Panamanian Regulations test (open book) while in Ground School AND that all Captains must take an ATP written the FIRST week in Panama ($250 cost). If Copa is serious about filling Captain seats with highly qualified pilots, there will be some help with study materials for the test.

Luckily, risking a $250 test fee is a really small issue for most of us.

As they say "Many a slip 'twixt cup and lip", but worst case scenario is I get a few more days "vacation" in Panama City.

P.S. Time to quit my current job, anyway.........
