I did the ATOP course 12 or so years ago and it was amazing. Uncle Wayne is an amazing instructor probably one of the best I've ever had. The experience was amazing and I am still kicking myself for not taking Wayne up on his offer to walk me in to what at that time was Contential Express. I need to go back and do it again and this time I'll take Uncle Wayne up on that offer!
Did the ATOP course with Wayne a couple years ago - the A320 @ JetBlue. A great experience and well worth the money. Highly recommend you do it - Wayne is the real deal. We had people from 18 to 60+ years old, pilots, student pilots, CFI's, and people just interested in flying. All seemed very happy with the entire experience. The simulator itself was also an incredible experience. I had been in a simulator many years before and the technology today is just awesome. Plus, at the end of it all I had log book entries with an A320! :-)
Took this course 12 years ago. Wayne said if we took the course twice, we would get a type rating. Did get my high altitude, FAR 61.31, sign off which is a required sign off. Great course, would like to retake it after I complete a full systems course. This course is like drinking from a fire hose!
**Offer** Hey Josh. I am a 43 yr old Dad of 3, husband and family pilot. We live just outside of Dallas. I am a fan of your channel and after watching this I am 100% in. Would be cool if you came up and did it with me. I want to give back to you by paying for you to do this with me. If you’re up to it, message me and we’ll get some plans together.
Very interesting, Josh. Not only does Wayne have enthusiasm for his subject but, it's obvious you also have passion for what he is teaching. You are a phenomenal "salesman" for flying.
Josh, your story telling has greatly improved. We look forward to your next one! And BTW, that class has to be on everyone's pilot bucket list, IMHO :)
Wayne is this and Wayne is that but what are his credentials? Is he a retired 737 airline pilot or is he a flight sim expert who has never actually piloted a 737?
LOL😃 LOL I 'm sitting here anticipating the first take off, LOL 😃 everything was going ok, then all of the sudden, I said where's he GOING? That was KOOL and a REALLY GOOD ABORT. I am glad I watch this. It made me feel like I was there with you all. 🛩✈
I live in Orlando and looking to change careers (from IT to aviation). Can you send me any info on the course you did? I'd be very interested in doing it!
500 bugs for the course seems very reasonable. I've seen just half hour simulator flights being offered for 200 bugs. So this sounds pretty good to me.
How does this course prepare someone who is committed to getting a 737 type rating? In a few months I'm going to take a 737 type rating checkride. Can I simply use this course to practice emergency procedures in the checkride profile?
I wish I suffer from acrophobia. If there is a No-Fly list for scaredy-cats, I am on top of that list. But loving flight sims, this would be so damned fun! I would take the course so that I could be that one person on the plane that answers "Does anyone know how to fly?" when the pilots are incapacitated. But then, I am fearful of flying, so that is a moot point :-) Good info here. Thanks
The best! I am from South Africa, currently doing light sport aircraft training. I want to go on to PPL and commercial pilot level. My question: will this course take international students? Please let me know as I am interested to do this training.
I looked at your channel and I could not find an email address but I wanted to find out. Are you from Austin? I heard it mentioned a couple of times and just wondered. I'm just NNW of AUS
I would love to learn to fly the 737-100 as its my favorite jet,but can't do it as a career due to my eyesight and hearing but would like to at least learn to be a pilot if for some reason a pilot is sick and can't fly I would be like a stand in and fly it to safety.
Cool! Too bad there isn't one where I live. I'm not sure I'm interested in ATP, unless I have a decent schedule. I think I'd be interested in light jets (more corporate flights than airline).
I decided too late in a career change. Now, at 55, I'll never become an airline pilot. This seems like a fun thing to do, but more like salt on the wound. Hopefully, one day I'll do this.
Yes you can, no worries. Basic common sense needed. And I will say minimum Year 12 as a basis. I've got my RPL and about to begin my PPL with minimums as well
Lol! I won't divulge the airline but a longtime childhood friend used to run the LDS and when they were replacing one of them with an update. Anyhoo...they allowed some of their instructors to bring family and friends to see/fly it before it was removed. He invited me and we told me that we'd be the last ones and so had no restrictions. What a blast that was!lol! He threw all sorts of stuff at me. Deployed TR in flight, ridiculous turbulence, loss of every axis control at one time or another and the aerobatic disarming maneuvers(ala Fed-Ex MD-11), short strip landings etc...Yeah I was sweating at the end. I told him they could load it up on the flatbed and move it to my hangar...but after learning how much power it eats, I'd need my own small nuke reactor to afford it!lol!
2 years later and I reflect on this.
Your filmmaking has come a long way! Nice work.

Jeff P , I too did that program in April 2016 and loved it. I can't wait to do the loft program.

This video inspired me to sign up for the April/2019 class in Dallas. I don’t know something like this was only 20 minuets away. Thanks Josh!
Hey, how did it go?
Very interesting, Josh. Not only does Wayne have enthusiasm for his subject but, it's obvious you also have passion for what he is teaching. You are a phenomenal "salesman" for flying.
Good video. I was lucky enough to spend about 4 hours in a 747 simulator at Boeing many years ago. Although not a pilot myself it was a great time.
HiggsBJ how did you get in that
You can really feel the shared passion in the room.
Josh, your story telling has greatly improved. We look forward to your next one! And BTW, that class has to be on everyone's pilot bucket list, IMHO :)
I used to be a simulator technician and got at least 6 hours in the sim. It was a level C Beechcraft 1900 sim.
Took it in Dallas. Worth every penny!
Always remember to hit the Trixie button! Uncle Wayne is the best!
Thank you so much for this video. A coworker and I have been looking for a way to see if Airline career choice is for us and this as helped a lot
Amazing video Josh! From a production standpoint, your videos have really become a work of art.
Josh thanks for sharing,I can say that being a corporate pilot has been a great and fun career for me .
Great video and I am also impressed by how similar you look to George Russell
I like the direction you're taking the channel. Very professional videography!
Man, this class would be so cool! Very nice video showing what they offer.
Absolutely excellent video!!
Thanks for this 'firm' Josh...I sent it to one of my Civil Air Patrol friends with 1400 hours and thinking about changing careers
Instructors that made things that could be boring fun is the best instructors

Great video Josh. I enjoyed the material and the presentation - well done!
Josh what’s your flight career look like in the future are u thinking airlines cargo corporate ?
7:27 Ryanair would be proud
Doesnt need seniority, he'll already be a captain
Ednard Mathew Dizon maybe an instructor
I did this program on the A320 at JetBlue in Orlando! It was awesome! Highly recommended!
I live in Orlando and looking to change careers (from IT to aviation). Can you send me any info on the course you did? I'd be very interested in doing it!
Never mind, found it!
Nick Landman facebook.com/atop.jets/
@@nlandman1 can you send me any info on the course? For instance how much does it cost? Thanks!
absolutely amazing video josh!!!!! you've inspired me so much
500 bugs for the course seems very reasonable. I've seen just half hour simulator flights being offered for 200 bugs. So this sounds pretty good to me.
June bugs? Crickets? Spiders? Flies?
I'm going to DO IT...Thanks for sharing this video...very well done Bro. Awesome Job.
This was very cool to watch and learn. I'd love to try it some day
The next semester I’m going to start Bachelor an aircraft operation.
Outstanding video about something many pilots only dream about. Thanks for sharing such an interesting course 😁

I think I finally found the perfect opportunity.
Pretty amazing stuff... Great video Josh!
I would love to attend. 🙂
Great video, Josh. It was very interesting.
Beyond cool.
Excellent video
Jeff’s bored might be the best emergency thing ever
I am a aviation enthusiast and I want to be a pilot how much do you think a 737 home cockpit costs
I like that kind of title...."most realistic 737 simulator" lol
Awesome!
The best! I am from South Africa, currently doing light sport aircraft training. I want to go on to PPL and commercial pilot level. My question: will this course take international students? Please let me know as I am interested to do this training.
I watched a lot of you tubes months and months so, but I would love to find a sim like that somewhere
im in connecticut
I cant afford it anyway
Very interesting; I didn't know that there was something like this. Thx!
im doing my b737 type rating now
I wanna do this now. How much does it cost?
I enjoyed this. Thanks for sharing.
Should I have the course
Is the program still available for $150?
I recently got my FAA private pilot license, but i am not an american citizenship, will i be abled to take the 737 course?
I looked at your channel and I could not find an email address but I wanted to find out. Are you from Austin? I heard it mentioned a couple of times and just wondered. I'm just NNW of AUS
When is the OSH video coming??
Where was this when I was young : (
I would love to learn to fly the 737-100 as its my favorite jet,but can't do it as a career due to my eyesight and hearing but would like to at least learn to be a pilot if for some reason a pilot is sick and can't fly I would be like a stand in and fly it to safety.
7:25 rip gear :))))))
nice video again
That's incredible
Great Video Josh! Well produced and filmed. I am really enjoying the new look. Good stuff!
Did you do this in February? I thought I may have seen you at the Flight Academy when I was doing my 737 Initial then.
It is a lot cheaper than I thought it would be. Might be something to check out.
You can’t ‘catch on fire’ you can only ‘catch fire’
You can ‘set on fire’ or ‘set fire to’ but things don’t catch on fire.
I'm really interested to sign up for this, but unfortunately I am not living in the US 😞
Cool! Too bad there isn't one where I live. I'm not sure I'm interested in ATP, unless I have a decent schedule. I think I'd be interested in light jets (more corporate flights than airline).
I see you changed the channel name from Mr Aviation to Aviation 101.
Great video Josh! Excited to see future videos! 🌁✈️
How is he giving you .5 of PIC time in an airplane you don't have a type rating in?
S4 Aviator it’s only sim time given, not actual flight time
Is that simulator located in Austin?
u guys must use microsoft flight simulator 2020
Dude, 495 dollars is a killer deal. I wish I could do this.
Sure you aren't getting the "airline itch," Josh?
This is fantastic! Thanks for sharing with us:)
Reminded me of my type rating. It's a truly beautiful experience.
I don't want a job to fly but to learn more about it so I can make my own sim
that's awesome
Epic video... very well done!
Why noo approching minimums
I decided too late in a career change. Now, at 55, I'll never become an airline pilot. This seems like a fun thing to do, but more like salt on the wound. Hopefully, one day I'll do this.
...got to do this at the United Airlines Training Center in Houston (KIAH), for the 787, 757, and 737....before they moved the center to Denver(KDEN)
Now I have to convince my parents to take me
This is a great option for young airline pilot wannabes!
Push some buttons. Take off. Get hammered on vodka. Wake me up when we land. See ya tomorrow!
They also do a320
I'd love too, but I'm in Australia. Cheers again though
Yes you can, no worries. Basic common sense needed. And I will say minimum Year 12 as a basis. I've got my RPL and about to begin my PPL with minimums as well
and here comes MIcrosoft Flight simulator 2020
Can 13 year old go there?
Sccratlanta can you get that at age 13 ?
Sccratlanta ok
Nice!

At 5:13....looks like they used FSDreamteam KDFW P3D-Lockheed Martin lol
It glides like a piano lol
cool just plan cool.
You should start a discord server.
I would like a 777 simulator in my House.
Barry Seal.
4:35 He took off without squawking C...

Subliem.
