I have a quick question and hoping someone could help me out. Assuming I do make it to the sim during my interview, what type of simulator do they conduct their evaluations on? Is it a "non-slaved" ADF display? I've never used a non-slaved ADF before so I thought I better ask so I can start practicing.
Thanks!

Long time stalker, first time poster.... quick question for those currently flying at Mesaba. Are you allowed to keep any points from your hotel stays?

Looking forward to meeting those of you in the Nov. 3rd class!

Yes, actually when a bunch of us stayed at the staybridge we all upgraded to platinum membership because we were there for like 30 days heh. It's kind of nice.

Yup it's non slaved but they really only expect you to know the basics on it and not much trickery. Just remember to think simple which I had to catch myself on a few times.

If you would like to you might want to stop by an FBO and see if they rent a sim for 30 minutes or so. Just in case you have been in an RJ for the past year like me.

I'll be arriving in MSP this Saturday. If anyone is around at that time, let me know. I'd be willing to meet up.

Where are you staying Colnago?

Colnago

I'll be staying at the Staybridge Suites. Aren't we all? or..?

Really? The only hotel that would give us points on the Saab was MKG Holiday Inn. Nobody else would, but I haven't even bothered to ask on the Jet since I mostly have done YUL highspeeds.

You just have to keep asking, it seems different Holiday Inns have different policies at different times. I stopped asking until I was in DBQ last time and saw the other two crews get their cards out. Now I will ask from time to time to see about those points.
