ATPL Theoretical Knowledge During PPL?
Hi - is it possible to start a distance course for ATPL's while achieving PPL? I'm wondering whether it's worth killing two birds with one stone as similar ground must be covered, just the ATPL knowledge will go into more detail?

I've recently done my theoretical PPL exam and waiting for the pratical exam and I do have 10 more hours to fly before. I tell you that I waited only 2 days after the exam to start studing for the first subjects of the ATPL exams. If it was possible I would have joined a distance learning programme but it seems to be not possible. So I can suggest you to manage your time as better as possible and if you can, start to go through the atpl books. That's what I've done.

hi
What you mean by 'while achieving PPL'?
Are you in termination phasis of your theoretical exams or havent yet started exams?
You can start the learning by yourself but not officially for which you have to BE the holder of the PPL.

ATPL before/during PPL
I have asked same question directly to London MET and the answer was strictly no however, they sugested that you can buy theirs books for 600 quid and these will be discounted when you wil enrol (after acheiving your PPL and passing their progress test)
I beleive/hope that most FTOs would be able to offer the same.
This sounds OK to me but I would like to hear what people think about London MET books.
