Modular ATPL
Our Modular ATPL offers a range of flight school courses giving you greater flexibility to study towards your frozen ATPL than via an integrated route. We offer ATPL Theoretical Knowledge training (also known as Ground School) which you must complete before commencing your CPL MEIR (Commercial Pilot License with Multi-Engine Instrument Rating). We also provide Multi-Crew Cooperation (MCC) training, which prepares you for life in the right hand seat on a commercial flight deck. Successful completion of the MCC also qualifies you for our Airline Placement Pool.
To begin Modular ATPL training you will need a Private Pilot License (PPL) and must have logged 150 flying hours before you can start your CPL. If you do not already hold a PPL we also offer courses designed to get you there.
