Second trying to stay in the same location as stick partner. I recently went through a qual course I’d gone through before on an airplane I’d flown. I had a new hire stick partner. Spoke with NH before fleet training began. Told me he was offered a choice of hotels. I told him I’m downtown, they’ve got a nice setup for us, you should take the downtown hotel. He chose the other hotel. He struggled greatly though training. We couldn’t prep together or go over anything together. I was clueless as to how or if he was studying and how to help him. Eventually they had to split us up because he had to repeat rides. Moral of the story, go to the same hotel as your stick partner.
