i've got a question. has anyone seen any info on whether canadian atp license holders who wish to convert to a faa atp must take the atp cpt course after aug 1 2014? the cpt course being the 10 hour level c/d sim training and 30 hours of ground school. currently its just a matter of a written test of 40 questions. if they dont have to take the cpt course that would be a great loophole for those who wish avoid spending the 10 to 15 k for the cpt course before being allowed to take the faa atp me written test. go convert your usa cpl to canada cpl , take the samra and saron written test and do the checkride and get a canadian atp and then the tc to faa atp written test and now you have 2 atp licenses and have saved 10 to 15 k by avoiding the cpt course
