Understand the concepts for engine out flying. Understand approaches and procedures to the best of your ability. Spend your time wisely learning the flows. This airplane is fast, and the more time you spend actually flying it instead of configuring it, the better off you will be.
They don't care how you land the plane in the sim. Just get it in the touch down zone and on center line.
You will be flying with the autopilot and flight director for a majority of your training and checkride. This type of flying is less about finesse and more about procedure.
Thanks a lot for your help man! I want to be as prepared as possible because honestly im not really using Ameriflight as a "1500 and leave job." I kinda wanted to do Cargo from the start. Also, I called Corporate and they seemed annoyed that I called haha. They said they would call me when they are ready and wont send training material until the call. I guess the August class got a 8 day notice. I guess ill tell my job that I might be leaving in a hurry.
