Headsets: needed or not for training, just want to know if I need to bring them.
Mount for the iPad. What do you recommend, single or dual suction cup? Any additional arm attachments?
Any tips for the training to get through with the least headaches?
Any study materials worthwhile prior to getting there? During?
Are you an EJet pilot? If so, I'm open to any advice you think important to impart.
I'll be commuting from Wisconsin. Week-long trips are not an issue. What can I expect for a schedule while flying reserve? Are there blocks of 3-4 days off that can be scheduled.
Are reserve EJet FOs sitting around, or is there plenty of flying to do?
Here's the ones I can answer.
No headsets needed until getting into an actual airplane.
I recommend 2. Safer and I've had 1 come off.
Reserve. Minimum 3 days on, max of 6. Minimum of 2 days off in a row. Only get 11 days off in a month so getting more then 3 in a row consistently is very hard.
E jet is short FOs. whole you won't hit the line for months can expect short reserve times for the erj at the moment.
