ATP Flight School Opens New Pennsylvania Training Center

ATP Flight School is opening its 70th location at Allegheny County Airport (AGC) in West Mifflin, Pennsylvania, bringing airline pilot training to the Pittsburgh region during an unprecedented pilot shortage. Through the Airline Career Pilot Program, aspiring pilots in the area can now fast-track their career to the airlines.

ATP's fixed-cost, accelerated program provides students with all the resources and airline connections needed to establish their airline careers and capitalize on the growing shortage of qualified pilots. Students at AGC will train using airline-oriented procedures in ATP's fleet of modern aircraft, including glass cockpit Piper Archers. Twenty-five of these new aircraft will join ATP's existing fleet of 450 aircraft this year.

ATP Flight School is taking delivery of 25 new Piper Archers throughout 2022.

Recently, ATP announced new partnerships with Frontier Airlines, Sun Country, and Avelo Airlines allowing ATP graduates and instructors to advance directly to an Airbus or Boeing First Officer position at 1,500 hours of flight time.
