TC to FAA quiz study material
Hello,
Does anyone have any study material online for the FAA ATPL 40 question quiz? I know it is all based off of FAR 91 but I would like some actual "practice" questions if anyone has done it. Any help is appreciated!

dauntless software has a $30 program I used. Started on Friday, wrote on Monday. It's not to hard.
It's not just 91, btw.
There is a bit of info in here, search for it.

Use Gleim. I studied for a few weeks and I wrote the exam in ten minutes... probably studied too much for what the exam was. I think the Dauntless one is probably less over kill, and more geared towards what you need.
It's a fairly straight forward exam. I had a few questions on airport markings (signs, hold lines, lighting), O2 requirements, #of flight attendants for x amount of pax on board, mostly Air Law. Don't worry about the IFR x-country trips that Gleim has in the study guide. You might get a few questions on IFR requirements... for example, VOR checks max error on the ground/in the air between a ground station and another VOR, how often are these checks required (30 days and must be put in the log book with bearing error and signature), holding speeds, speeds expected on departure for cat B C D aircraft in class B, VFR departures, flight plans, etc.

To convert your Canadian ATPL to FAA ATPL:
1. Go to:
http://www.faa.gov/licenses_certificate ... y61-75.pdf
This is where the FAA verifies your Canadian ATPL. Fill this form out online (don’t forget to sign it). For section 11, select a FSDO where you plan to convert your license (in person). You can always change this location later if you need to. Check out:
http://www.faa.gov/about/office_org/field_offices/fsdo/ for locations.
2. Make a copy of this form for later. Mail to address on bottom of form, or call 405-954-1890 for a fax number to expedite the process. Send both pages of your license (picture and ratings pages) and medical.
3. Book a medical. In YYC, I used Dr. Helleur, 403-275-7705. She does a package bundle, initial FAA and recurrent TC medical with ECG, for $205.
4. Study conversion material. I used Gleim.com, and it was very helpful. There are 800 sample questions, and 5 practice exams, consisting of 40 questions, with a pass rate of 70%. I spent 10 hours and was comfortable with the info.
5. Wait about a month and receive letter from FAA (verification letter)
6. Book a test centre:
http://www.faa.gov/training_testing/tes ... enters.pdf
Mine in Dallas cost $100. Best to call them a day or two ahead of time.
7. Arrange with FSDO that they are open (one in Dallas is only open Tues/Wed)
8. Write test. Bring a copy of the form sent to the FAA, the verification letter from the FAA, your license, and medical, pencil, flight computer.
9. Go to FSDO. Call 405-954-1890 if you need to change locations. Bring Verification letter, test results, your license and medical, and hopefully within an hour you’ll have your FAA ATP
