Mil2atp

MIL2ATP is a flight school at Wayne Executive Jetport in Pikeville, North Carolina, near Seymour Johnson Air Force Base. It describes itself as an award winning school training both beginner pilots and military aviators moving into civilian flying, and a Piper Seneca twin is listed on its FAA certificate.

Its general flight training takes students from zero hours or from a private pilot licence onward. For experienced military pilots, it runs a military to airlines course, airline transport pilot practical training and preparation for airline applications and interviews. It also offers the ATP certification training programme required before the airline transport pilot test, with an optional professional development package.

A rotorcraft transition programme helps helicopter pilots move to fixed wing aircraft, a common path for Army and Marine aviators leaving the service. The school also lists the Defense Department's SkillBridge programme, which lets service members train with civilian employers in their final months of service, and it accepts GI Bill benefits.

Students praise its preparation for the airline transport pilot practical test. MIL2ATP is a flight school rather than a charter operator, so this profile is listed for reference.
