Hello fellow Aviators,

its been a month since i got my NZ CAA CPL with ME-IR in hand and after sending my CV off to every possible Job opening; the waiting and stalking game has begun. hence have decided to go ahead with studying Oxford ATPL books and CBTs in my free time as the school library has access to both.

Since it seems pretty intense and overwhelming, i was hoping if people who have already used these aids could give some sort of a guideline they followed or think they should have followed.

Thanks in Advance.

Sometimes the sequence is up to you, sometimes the provider or school requires you to follow a specific sequence.
Give a look at Bristol GS modules (split in 3 parts), CATS Aviation (split in 3 parts), OAA (split in 2 parts) and CAPT (split in 3 parts).
I really like the way it is structured at CAPT.

Thanks for your comments - a couple of points that have come up recently - it may also be a good idea to study ops with performance (and POF with fixed wing), and nav with instruments (weird I know, but the powers that be have put inertial nav with instruments, and compasses are shared). Comms and radio nav also share propagation. Otherwise everything else is relatively independent.

That may cut your workload down a bit.

@REDBULLGAVEMEWINGS and PACO, Thanks a tonne, it was actually helpful.

Have started with a basic plan quite on the lines of what PACO suggested.

will update this thread once its concrete enough to help others in future.

Thanks
