The primary purpose of Airline Transport Pilot FAA Knowledge Test is to provide you with the easiest, fastest, and least expensive means of passing the FAA Airline Transport Pilot (Part 121) - Airplane (ATP) or Airline Transport Pilot (Part 135) - Airplane (ATA) knowledge test, which is required before you can take your ATP practical (flight) test. Additionally, this book can be used in preparation for the following FAA knowledge tests: Airline Transport Pilot (FAR Part 135) - Added Rating - Airplane (ARA), which is for a person who holds an ATP certificate with a helicopter-class rating and wants to add an airplane rating to his/her ATP certificate. Aircraft Dispatcher (ADX), which is required for a person desiring to become an aircraft dispatcher for a Part 121 air carrier. The fastest, easiest, and least expensive way to study for the FAA knowledge test!
