Accelerated ATP Certification with Sanders Flight Training Center
The Airline Transport Pilot Certification Training Program (ATP-CTP) is the first required step toward earning your Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) Certificate, a mandatory qualification for airline captains and first officers.
At Sanders Flight Training Center, we partner with the FedEx Air Operations Training Center to provide a highly structured ATP-CTP course, designed to prepare commercial pilots for airline careers with real-world, full-motion simulator training.
Academic Training
Your academic training will take place at Sanders Flight Training Center in Jasper AL. An SFTC Instructor will guide you through 30 hours of ground training covering topics such as Aerodynamics, Meteorology, Air Carrier Operations, and Leadership and professional development.
Flight Simulator Training
Upon completion of your ground training you will complete the required 10 hours of flight training in a Full Motion Level D Flight Simulator (FFS 10hrs). During these events you will have the opportunity to practice normal flight ops as well as upset recoveries using the techniques and procedures used in part 121 air carrier operations.
The Written Test and Graduation
With simulator training complete you will return to Sanders Aviation, receive a graduation certificate, and take your FAA ATM written knowledge test.
