PTC ATPL Distance Learning

Hello just started my PPL and am looking into how i wish to carry out my ATPLs. Was thinking on doing the distance learning course instead of intergrated. Any one have any experience with the distance learning course?

Also check out Cranfield Aviation Training (CAT's) at Cranfield. I just completed my ATPL's with them. With CAT's you can do the course in any subject sequence and with the ground school weeks being 5 days long for each of the 3 phases it is helpful if you are also working.

I did the atpl's distance learning through PTC found them good, could do the subjects in whatever order i wanted like mentioned earlier at Cranfield. You do the groundschool two weeks before the exams, groundschool was generally good aswell especially in the bigger subjects like gen nav, principles, instruments and systems for example.

But dont do the atpl's without getting your hands on the bristol question bank whoever you do them with!

No, wrong way round. it is Bristol syllabus. It was Oxford but the support wasn't there and the database is better at Bristol.
