JAR-ATPL in the States - 2nd call

[Sentenza]

Hi All,

Thanks again for all the answers to my question regarding which schools in the States offer JAA-approved ATPL courses.

Thanks to rolling circle I am now looking more closely at WMU, however, I am still also considering PanAm and IFTA.

WMU offers an integrated ATPL course, while the other two both offer (on their websites) modular courses all the way through to CPL/IR, including ATPL theory.

My question now would be whether there's any significant advantage of taking an integrated course over a modular one. Also, if I go the Florida way, i. e. go for the CPL/IR by way of a modular course, do I then end up with a "frozen" ATPL, or would I have to sort of "finish" my ATPL somewhere else?

Again, any and all answers would be greatly appreciated.

Blue Skies
