Goto ATP for the multi add-on to your CMEL w/ Instrument

[/ QUOTE ]

We have no complex singles around here. Funny story, an instructor geared up the only one we had with a commercial student. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/insane.gif[/img]

I wanted to get my intial CMEL w/ instrument so I can then get my CSEL in a 172. ATP will not do this! I asked multiple times and I told them it doesn't make sense. A CMEL is a glorified private, throw in 2 or 3 approaches and call it a day. Comon, its not that hard!!!!

I must have missed something. What does the lack of complex singles have to do with anything? Also, if you could clarify, did you do your instrument rating ride in a single? Thanks. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

ATP offers a multi add-on, not initial. That's why I suggested getting the Comm in a single (which would make you Comm ASEL w/instru, Private AMEL VFR) then go to ATP for the Comm AMEL (which would make you a Comm ASEL / AMEL w/ instr). That they will do; I did them when I worked there.

If Sheble's works, go for it. I've heard decent stuff about them too and that might be the path of least resistance for ya. ATP doesn't really go outside their normal packages simply because it's too big of an "institution" to do it.
