So how about using your ATP to get a lesser FAA licence..ie CPL..I'm over there for a sim later this year, and wanted to do an ATP check during the sim..provider can do it, I can do the written test, got my ATPL verified, got my TSA approval, but now I need to do an approved ATP theory course first, but in the time I have available, I could do the written CPL test and FAA CPL check in the sim if someone in the states would reply to my emails or phone calls!?
Does anyone have experience doing it this way?
