47-473 Airline Transport Pilot

This course covers air transport topics assessed in the FAA ATP and Aircraft Dispatcher Knowledge examinations. This course does not, however, fulfill all the specific training requirements of 14 CFR 156 for a student to be eligible to take the FAA knowledge exam. The overall goal of this course is to introduce aviation students to the larger environment of global airline transport pilot operations. Students learn about Federal Aviation Regulations aircraft systems, the theory of flight, aerodynamics, meteorology with respect to engine operations, and weight and balance computations.
