Ok, then. It’s broken into 2 phases. MV and LOFT. Under the old system you had 6 sims and a check ride.
Now you do approx. 5/6 sim sessions and take the MV (stalls, steep turns, V1 cuts, OEI approach/landing and normal TO/LDG. You won’t do these again till your recurrent MV.
In loft you fly 4/6 simulated line flights with threats. Nothing big, learn CRM/TEM. Then a QLOE and you are done.
Much more gentle and you get extra sessions within reason. When I was a new hire you got 2 extra sessions and fired if you needed more.
