Career Change

The Problem

An ambitious goal at a young age.

Aviation has always been a part of Morgan's life, as she grew up traveling and has several friends and family who are pilots.

Her journey began with a discovery flight, which opened her eyes to the beauty of aviation and immediately became “hooked” by it. Following that experience, she began flight training and obtained her private pilot certificate throughout senior year of high school.

Being a young pilot gave Morgan the motivation to work hard, and she set an ambitious goal for herself: to be an airline pilot by her twenty-first birthday. After graduation, she needed a training program that would push her and allow her to continue progressing toward that goal as efficiently as possible.

Choosing ATP

The Solution

ATP's proprietary Part 61 training with an airline-modeled Part 141 structure.

After graduation, Morgan got started at ATP Flight School and pursued the Airline Career Pilot Program. “I decided to train with ATP because I knew that it would push me,” she stated.

ATP's fast-paced training outline gave Morgan the environment she was looking for to work hard and continue moving toward her goal of becoming an airline pilot at a young age.

A Rewarding Milestone

The Outcome

Completing ATP in six months.

Morgan is an eighteen-year-old pilot who graduated from the program in just over six months.

With her goal of becoming an airline pilot by her twenty-first birthday, completing the program at eighteen years old brought Morgan one step closer to achieving it.

So far, Morgan describes the experience at ATP as “so rewarding.”
