Airline Transport Pilot Certificate (ATP)
The ATP certificate is a necessary requirement to fly as PIC in certain transport category operations. Furthermore, attainment of the ATP demonstrates that you have demonstrated a level of flying accuracy and skill commensurate with an experienced professional pilot.
At Angel City Flyers, your training for the ATP rating is conducted in a state of the art Diamond DA42 Twin Star.
Our experienced instructors will guide you through understanding the aircraft systems and developing your piloting skills to a level beyond that necessary for the ATP practical test standards.
Our FAA approved level 5 Flight Training Device allows you to benefit from the type of training equipment normally reserved for airline and corporate pilots. This allows us to train more effectively and efficiently to a greater level.
The ATP check ride is a similar format to that of a type rating. Through its revolutionary technology, the Diamond DA42 Twin Star is very similar to a Jet’s system architecture and operation.

We offer a three day intensive course for those who are current under IFR. The course covers aircraft systems, aircraft general handling, operation of the aircraft under normal conditions and operation under abnormal and emergency situations.
