OK everything lapsed, fast track renewal of it all!!!

[JohnnyPharm]

As title suggests had everything except CPL, was part through that when had relationship/financial stuff going on. Was in 2007 and XL and Zoom etc had all started going bust so kinda put it on the back burner.

Now all has lapsed ie PPL, Night, MEIR, and ATPL writtens. (Still had CPL and MCC to complete)

If I renew PPL do I still need to do 150 cross country before CPL?

I think I could get the ATPL's again in a few months as, academically I was better than the actual flying part,

So the question is? Anyone know of anywhere I could do a fast track renewal of it all who would be really patient as I flew for the first time in 3 years a few weeks ago and I was really rusty (albeit it was a twin).
, and realistically how long do you think it would take? Yes it all depends on my current rustiness and on the skills I had before (good or bad), but a ball park figure would be suffice.

Thanks in advance

Go to CATS for the cheapest way of redoing your ATPLs they reduce the price if you have done them before with them

3 months to get the wriitens again?

If you do not renew your PPL with a skill test then you could do the 25 h CPL course otherwise renew your PPL and your IR then do the short 15 h CPL course which should work out cheaper as long as you do not end up having a costly IR renewal

Fist off, I think you are fooling yourself if you think the project will be a fast-track thing. In my experience most people who attend courses with a "fast track" attitude tend to learn much less during their training because the are so focused on being done, that they loose focus on the most important thing: Flying that aircraft, learning and getting up to standards. Ind the end they end up spending far more time/money than a patient student who is aware of the challenges and tasks at hand.
Do yourself a favor and forget the fast-part for a while, especially when you say yourself that you are rusty on the flying part.

Any modular school should be able to help you, I would choose a modular only school if I were you, as they are more acustomed to handling cases like youself.

No serious school will agree to try and fast-tracking you, there are standards to be met. But meet up with the school CFI and explain your situation and ask for advice.

Timeframe guess: 3/4 - 1 year

My advice:
1) Renew you medical
2) Retake the ATPL theory (expect at least 4-6 month)
3) If you meet the requirement for CPL course entry (200TT, 100PIC, 20h vfr cross country and a cross country +300nm with 2 away stops)
- Start up CPL WHEN you have completed ATPL theory
4) If not: renew your SEP Land (PPL should be valid 5 years)(While reading ATPL theory) (training as deemed required followed by PFC with an examinor) - then fly remaining time building while you keep reading
5) Do your MCC
6) Renew your MEIR, again training as deemed required followed by PFC, and join the quew of unemployment

Slightly different take why not do an FI course over the winter/spring and then instruct part time over next summer. Your ATPL passes will still be valid form a FI course point of view.

One your logging the hours all the rest will drop into place alot easier and cheaper.
