It is really hard to be patient... I would love to start studying something but I have no material.... does anybody knows a good website or thread on this forum that talks about the training at eagle? I might do the erj if I have the opportunity.
It is commendable to be enthusiastic, however do yourself a favor. Don't start studying anything aircraft or system related until you start training and have to proper Eagle training materials.

After all, you don't know what aircraft you might be getting into, and even if you did it is easy to study the wrong thing, or worse yet commit a fact or figure about the aircraft that differs from our Op Spec. Then you'll have primacy coming back to bite you in the ass during systems training.

If you commit yourself to the program there will be more then enough time to assimilate that data that is presented to you at the pace it is presented. You don't have to worry about getting a head start.

If you really want to get a jump on things, the opportunity will present itself after the CBT training. Knock that out quickly and spend time working on your limitations and flows.

Good Luck
