My start date at ATP is July 29 at KGKY, so these videos really help put into perspective what it is I am going to be learning and doing. Thank you so much Luke!
Hey man I'm in talks with Admissions and they're asking for a $995 deposit before selecting a start date. Other than reserving a start date, what else would that get me? (Maybe the headset/goodie box of shirts, books, etc.) or does it just reserve my date? Thanks!!
@@brysonmorrow6980 It reserves your class date, and you will get uniforms, a backpack, and study materials in the box. (No headset included, you must furnish yourself)
nice videos Luke! I plan on starting ATP next year in Tampa! Did you take out a loan to cover the expenses? Also, I have researched many flight schools (some being relatively cheaper than ATP), what made you decide on ATP?
I did not take out a loan but most people do through Sallie Mae. I decided on ATP for a few reasons. It seemed like they could get me through the program fast - and they have so far. There was a location near where I live. And they have good marketing 😂. I should've done more research probably but it hasn't been too bad so far. Don't think there is one right option for everyone though as far as a flight school. Thanks for watching my videos!
How old are you? I’m 26, married and wanting to provide a better life long term for my family but not sure if im already behind the 8 ball to become a pilot
I am 23 there but definitely don't feel old compared to most people at my training center. The instructor I flew with yesterday is 35 and has four kids. He decided to go for it after 12 years selling mortgages. There are a lot of people in a position similar to his. If you can commit and it's what you really want to do, I say do it!
Hi Luke, thanks for the great content. I have a question regarding timeline. I did my Private in a professional setting similar to ATP, but I completed it in 21 days. We flew twice a day and studied when the weather was bad we had ground school between flights. I’m currently looking for a school for my GF to attend, however as she is a foreign student she can’t afford to spend 3 or 4 months there for her Private. Is that pace set by the school, instructor availability, aircraft availability, or by you? Thanks again for the informative content
@@AMB955Bosbok wow! The pace is determined by the school ultimately. They have a fast pace but having the right instructor and weather are probably the two next biggest factors. I was able to finish my private in about 10 weeks but some students took 3-4 months for various reasons.
Hey man looking into starting at atp in September I’m 25 recently married and wanted a career change but don’t have 3 years to take to become a pilot. How much has weather affected your flying so far I know the cost is crazy when you aren’t flying a lot or so I have heard.
@@xckj3776 well the cost for the flight training at ATP is pretty much a fixed cost so the only way weather would affect price is that it just makes the training go on longer so you just have to keep paying living expenses before making an income again. Hopefully that makes sense

Of Course man glad they help! Good luck!

@@brysonmorrow6980 I think it's just the start date and it guarantees your cost for the program
@@FlyWithLukeD OK that seems about right. Thanks Luke have a good one and I wish you luck through your program!
These videos are a great great help. Please continue doing them if you have the time!!

Nice video Luke! Does ATP require college GPA to get into? If so, do you need high GAP to get into the ATP?

@@jakerolin4642 I did my Commercial CFMEII at 32 and have had an amazing career. There are sacrifices but IMHO it’s worth it in the end.

@@FlyWithLukeD thanks for getting back to me. Much appreciated. By the way, it’s the best career ever, I’m 25 years in and don’t regret a day.
@@AMB955Bosbok love it! What airline do you fly for?
@@FlyWithLukeD I went the Corporate route and have been on Gulfstreams for 15 years 👍👍👍
Hey Luke, what kind of iPad do you use for flight training?
@@judegarcia764 iPad mini gen 6. Just needs to have cellular
@@FlyWithLukeD Ah okay, do you also need a knee board?

@@FlyWithLukeD ya that does I appreciate the answer
@@xckj3776 no problem!
are you part 61 or 141 ?
Not 100% sure tbh but I think it's part 61 but acts similar to a 141.
@@FlyWithLukeD thanks man appreciate it ! Did receive any funding loans/ scholarships for the schooling ?
I did not if that's what you were asking. Fortunately I was able to save enough from my previous jobs and got a little help from my parents as well!
@@FlyWithLukeD thanks man I appreciate it !
