ATPL Theory without any flight experience
Hey all,
I will be enrolling in a MPL program this fall or possibly winter. Would I be able take a module 1 ATPL exam just by myself through self studying? Or do I need to be under an institution? Also, it would be great if I could be provided with some online ATPL courses / study materials as I plan to preview it before I enter the MPL course. Thanks, would appreciate some feedbacks. |
For EASA you need to be with an ATO (Air Training Organisation) that is approved to provide ground school.

Is MPL even a safe approach? Because you will end up with nothing if you don’t get hired and the 1500 turbine time. Correct me if I’m wrong.

Thank you , have a good one

there's obvious risk into it. but i've seen others who have completed and now in the cockpit, cheers

I’m not pouring a wet blanket, pls don’t get me wrong. If you’re doing self sponsored, why not maximize the flying experience as a CPL rather than a MPL. I know cost is definitely an issue. But as a CPL, you can be a instructor after that and teach and log hours at the same time while waiting to get hired. Whereas if you’re hired by the airline and being put thru a MPL program than that’s different. There is definitely ppl who get it, just like CPL holders who got it. But I believe there is also a large pool of ppl didn’t make the cut. So CPL is like a backup plan, at least you get to be flying. That’s just my 2 cents worth.

If you wanted to be a flying instructor, then the other standard routes are available, with the issue of a CPL/IR (fATPL). For the MPL, the IRT is part of the multi crew IR on successful completion (LST) of the type rating simulator phase. There continues to be great confusion as to what MPL is about..... |
