Hi guys,
I´m european JAA ATPL pilot and I am going to travel next week to USA to do the FAA ATP. Has anybody prepared it with the Sheppard Air software recently? Is it still working properly and is it enough to pass the written?
Thanks

I agree that it needs some updating, but there are quite a bit of old airplanes around still flying cargo. You see quite a number of Convairs going in/out of KELP. Number of DC-3 operators throughout the country. FedEx operates a bunch of 727s. Alaska... geez, they fly things there forever. So as an ATP there is a good chance of still running into the stuff.

You are correct, but they are a dying breed, everyone of the airplanes you just mentioned. The test needs to get with the times, like the rest of the government.

I honestly don't care what questions they ask me just as long as the number on the screen at the end is 70% or above.

"If you just popped out of the clouds on an IAP and you saw a helcopter hovering in the final approach course, what would somebody with the MACHO haz. attitude do?"

WTF? Really?

I'm planning on taking the ATP written soon. Sounds like good times...
