In the aerosim course did they actually prep you for the written, or was it strictly by the curriculum they have to follow from the FAA?

Im just wondering, if you take Aerosim's course, is it still prudent to get some other test prep going, like Shepperd to Gliem etc?

I did the Shepperd ATP course a few years ago and recommend it. I think they have a money back guarantee if you score less than 90%; so either way it's a good deal.

Oh yea, I swear by Shep.. I did my Instrument through them.

I was just curious if the CTP was set up as a written prep or just the basics needed to satisfy the FAA.

Not in the slightest bit. All FAA slides and correctable quizzes. We all crammed using Sheppard Air; that's the only way to do it, IMHO.

Yea, your right. I got a couple messages from folks about test prep.

On the other hand, does anyone here have any inside information about upcoming regionals that will offer it as part of the initial training? I know AWAC was just approved, but I was curious about any scuttlebutt out there about whos next.
