I think you will have to do the Commercial and Instrument Rating tests, if you have no Night time you dont qualify for the ATP, its either 75 or 100 hours you need before you can get a ATP issued.
As far as the training or flight tests go am sorry i cant help, but am sure you cant get a ATP

Im in a similar postion as EGHI. I have a JAA CPL/IR, more than 1500tt, some of that turbine, and almost the required 100 hours night.
So from what I gather, correct me if I'm wrong: are to gain a FAA medical here in the UK, sit the FAA ATP exam at EGLF, and then as Im doing my first N reg type rating on a citation complete the ATP checkride??
Would this then give me an FAA ATP?
A couple of questions. Can you just turn up to EGLF and sit the exam, or do you have to first sit a course before the FAA can issue you with the paper work in order to sit the exam- like in the JAA?
Also how long do the ATP exam credits last? How hard would it be to do a ATP checkride on an aeroplane that you have just completed a type rating on?
I presume this method is better, and cheaper than the route of converting my JAA CPL/IR direct to the FAA CPL/IR?
Hope you dont mind me asking all these questions.
