ATP Flight School

ATP Flight School, headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida, is the largest flight training company in the United States. The privately held company was founded in Atlanta, GA by its current management, a small group of airline pilots, in 1984. ATP’s initial focus was providing flight training to U.S. military pilots who were seeking their Airline Transport Pilot Certificates to transition over to commercial air carrier operations. Maintaining a focus on professional flight training, ATP later expanded its course offerings to include ab-initio training programs for both domestic and international students, seeking a career in commercial aviation.

ATP Flight School has 39 (as of August 2015) locations throughout the United States.

ATP operates their programs with a fixed-cost, fixed timeframe training model, with an emphasis on multi-engine flight experience. ATP offers training programs for most all fixed-wing FAA pilot certificates and ratings. Other programs offered include regional jet training, which utilize CRJ-200 flight-training devices (FTD). This Regional Jet Standards Certification program was endorsed by American Eagle Airlines in 2010.

ATP Flight School is also partnered with Arizona State University, and is the flight provider for its Professional Flight bachelor's degree program, based out of the Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport facility. Aircraft used for the contract are painted in a special livery featuring the ASU logo and pitchfork.
