Glad to see others getting into the 756. The training was what I expected, the problem I saw was the quality of the instructors. Some where good, many where bad. I felt most didn't really know the aircraft and had no interest in being pilots, just hiding in the sim building and taking a pay check. I HIGHLY recommend it.
I think the bigger problem was the confusion between the 76T and 756. Cant tell you how many times I heard "oh wait is that a 76t or 756 thing" most of them taught in the 756 fleet but flew for years in the 76T
