Well while the RJ guys and the Mil guys argue over who deserves a slot the most....for those of you who DO get the nod here's a tidbit: Bring your A game to training on day 1. They have figured out how to squeeze the training a little further (shorten it). There will no longer be a week of systems review before taking the Oral aka Electronics Systems Validation. You will now take the ESV on day 2 of training after 1 day of review. Being new to an a/c and new to a company at the same time is not a good combo when "self-teaching". Advice (I just took the 737 esv today). Memorize verbatim the LOD (Learning Objective Document), memorize every question on the Practice ESV CD....and that's not enough. Hit the Volume 2 and FCTM well enough to be able to quote chapter and verse for different systems. I already flew the 800 for 2 years, 3 years ago....and couldn't fathom taking the ESV on day 2. I think it's going to backfire on the training dept and there will be casualties along the way until they rebuild the wheel again.
