would you turn down a job at AA? They use F&H currently too. What about Delta? They’ve used them too. Stop focusing on the small stuff. Let the negotiators do their jobs. They know from polling what will and won’t pass. It was just a proposal the company made, nothing to make career plans on. I’d be shocked if a company ever opened with something actually acceptable.

for anybody that has or is expecting a class date, hit those CBT’s hard and often. There is very very little systems teaching in ground school, so the CBT is important to understand each system. You’ll find the instructors extremely willing to help if you’re stuck and not grasping something fully. Feel free to PM if something isn’t making sense. They’ll also include in the home study some limitations and profiles stuff to study before arriving too. The limitations will be in the type oral, the profiles in fixed base sim, and full flight sim. The better you can regurgitate the limitations and profiles the easier it will go. There will usually be some unofficial handouts and/or data files filtered out during class to help with oral prep, as well as access to company “how to” style videos on everything from FMC preflight loading to flying approaches. A great deal of info gets compressed into basically two weeks before fixed and full flight sims.

to those joining us these next few months, welcome aboard. You won’t regret it. Hope to meet many of you around the schoolhouse.
