ATP Flight School: Your Guide to Start Flight Training Now with a Zero Down Loan // #63

This week Mike and Sean have a chat with Jahmal whom is currently
enrolled at ATP Flight school in Denver. Jahmal has a great story
to tell about his journey to become a professional pilot that I'm
sure many will resonate with.


ATP is the king of the big box accelerated training flight
schools and this week we get into the nitty-gritty of how their
program works from start to finish. Full financing with deferred
payments, modern equipment in the cockpits, professional training
with part 61 rules, locations all over the US, connections to get
you a job at practically every regional airline, and most likely
a guaranteed job before you're even half way through training...
ATP is becoming the choice of many many future aviators and we
break it all down in this episode with our fellow aviator guest
Jahmal.
