ATP Flight School will add 61 factory-new aircraft to its fleet in 2025, including seven Piper Seminoles with Garmin G1000 flight decks and 54 Cessna 172 Skyhawks with Garmin G1000 NXi avionics. The aircraft will provide additional training capacity as ATP continues expanding its resources to meet growing airline pilot demand.

ATP is opening new training centres in Ann Arbor and Pontiac, Michigan and a fifth location in metro Atlanta, Georgia. ATP currently operates a fleet of 614 aircraft, with 133 new deliveries over the past two years. The company plans to add at least 40 new aircraft per year through 2027.

Michael Arnold, vice president of marketing at ATP, says, “The safety and reliability of ATP's operations exceed the national average for general aviation flight instruction by a factor of ten.”

ATP conducts over 850 daily flights, logging more than 581,000 flight hours annually. The school maintains its fleet through 30 dedicated maintenance bases and an airline-style operations centre in Jacksonville Beach.

Deliveries of the new Cessna Skyhawks began in February and will continue throughout the year.
