Marco,
YOu can either get the rating through experience and then taking the
Oral and Practicals or by attending school and taking the oral and
practical. I chose school. Full TIme for four semesters. Essentially two
years. There are place that you can do it faster, however attendance is
mandatory and you will fail if you miss too much time. There are some
schools that have an evening programs. It is possible to it part time
but you are probably looking at four years to complete.

Michelle,
Good to hear that you actually make some money doing what you love. How long
was the schooling? I was looking to get the rating to make myself a better
owner/pilot. If getting the rating is time consuming, I may have to pass
given that I have a non-aviation daytime job and a budding family at home.
Has anyone out there been able to get their A&P part time?

Marco,
I went back to school to get my A&P long after I got my PPL.
I now earn a living using my A&P for a regional airline. Four of us in
my class ended up working for the same Company. I am working towards
earning a living with my current rating, ATP.
It was a great experience. Three of us in my class were Pilots.

I was curious to hear about your story. For example, have you found it
helpful as an owner and/or pilot? Did it take a long time to obtain? What
are the pros and cons? Has it saved your ass at all? Given the same
situation, would you do it again?
Thanks!
Marco
