Easa airline pilot to FAA ATP

Asked by: 2287 views , ,
FAA Regulations

Hello,

 

I fly in Europe and have an EASA ATPL (European ATP), I'm 25, I have 2000 total hours including 1500 hours on B737.

 

I know we can't convert EASA ATPL into FAA ATP,  my situation is that I have 2000 hours (hence requirements for FAA ATP)  but I don't have any FAA licenses. Is it possible to do ATP written exam and check ride straight away without going through PPL, commercial, build-up hours ?

 

I would also appreciate if you could name some flight school providing ATP ground school and exams

 

thank you for your help

    61.153(d)(3) allows you to apply for a US ATP without a US Commercial/Instrument, if you hold a foreign ATP.

    The problem will be with the written. See 61.156 for the prerequisites to take the ATP written for an Airplane Multiengine rating.
