ATPL Literature

Hi,

I am in the process of gathering material to write my Canadian ATPL exams (I understand it's the same process to upgrade a CPL to ATPL as to convert a foreign ICAO license) and was wondering if anyone can recommend the books to study in preparation for the exams (I'm somewhat lost in terms of what books to get to help prepare for the exams). If anyone can provide some insight, it'd be very much appreciated. Thanks!!!

Cheers

Yep, AeroCourse is one. The is also Culhane's. Culhanes I think just does the books, no weekend course offered, unlike AeroCourse. There is another place in the Montreal area, can't track down the info at the moment. However, it's not like the FAA where they force feed you the right answers and you write a test at the end of the day. They actually make you write 2 exams. However AeroCourse definately points you in the right direction. Taking their course will help for sure. Then you will obviously have to do a flight test and your done.

Good Luck

Thanks for the replies.

As I understand it though, Aerocourse doesn't actually provide any books to study with their guides? As in, it's just that, I guide where you find the reading material?

Culhane is complete as in you don't need to go buy additional books, but I heard not quite as good as Aerocourse. Is this correct?

Would anyone be able to reference some books (as in the actual reading material) as well? Thanks again!

AeroCourse supplies yuo with all the books. They will even send them out to you for pre-study if you book your weekend seminar early enough in advance.

There is a wealth on information on another aviation forum site? Did you try asking people there?
