This ratings is the VATSTAR equivalent of the FAA Airline Transport Pilot License (ATPL) but simplified for the flight simulator environment.

Due to the requirement of failing an engine after liftoff/V2, the aircraft used must either have custom failures available (when using P3D or MSFS2020), use an add-on module or the failure must be set using X-Plane's built-in feature that can trigger failures at a certain speed. Therefore, only a few aircraft are able to meet the checkride requirements.

VATSTAR is using real-world material freely provided by FAA and referenced throughout the lessons.
