min atpl requirements?
 

What are the minimum requirements (hours) to embark on the ATPL ground school and is an IMC required?
I'm pretty sure the IMC is not required, the reason why I ask is because I have done the flying portion and skills test for the IMC rating but not the ground exam....

Anwers on a postcard please!!

No IMC required.

You need just a PPL.
Don't bother if you don't have a class one medical though.

What about min hours???
I know there is different figure for start of course and atpl application??

There isn't a minimum, you just need a PPL.

I believe it is 100 hrs, but they never check, you have a look at the forms and GIDs on the web site, no requirement to send in your licence.

I say again, there isn't a minimum. I started with 65hrs TT. Some schools do have self-imposed minima though.

As Foghorn says there is no minimum hours just a PPL.I would advise getting a class 1 first though.
