Introduction

TheATP Oral Exam Guideis a comprehensive guide designed for pilots who are involved in training for the Airline Transport Pilot Certiîcate. This book will also prove beneîcial for those pilots transitioning to turbine aircraft or who have been accepted and are preparing for entry into an initial training course at an airline ground school or ATP Certiîcation Training Program (ATP CTP). It’s also a great tool for pilots wanting to maintain and/or refresh their knowledge. The Airline Transport Pilot Airman Certiîcation Standards (FAA-S-ACS-11) speciîes the areas of operation and tasks in which knowledge must be demonstrated by the applicant before issuance of an ATP Certiîcate with an airplane category multi-engine class rating or an ATP Certiîcate issued with a type rating. This book contains questions and answers pertaining to those areas, as well as references to source material where additional detailed information can be found. Questions and answers are organized into seven chapters. The îrst two chapters cover aircraft systems and performance and limitations. The next four chapters include information on weather, high altitude aerodynamics, air carrier operations, and human factors. The last chapter provides a review of the Federal Aviation Regulations (Parts 1, 61, 91, 117, 121, and 135). At the end of this guide are two appendixes. Appendix A contains the FAA’s ATP Airplane Multiengine Applicant Qualiîcations Job Aid, which provides the speciîc requirements for the ATP practical test. Appendix B contains an ATP Practical Test Checklist, to be used when making înal preparations for the checkride. This book may be supplemented with other comprehensive study materials as noted in parentheses after each question, for example (AC 00-45). The abbreviations for these materials and their titles are listed below. If no reference is given after a question, the answer for that question was researched from interviews with airline pilots, 121/135 operators, and examiners.
