New SIM Dates Now Available – FAA/ERAU Pilot Decision-Making Study

Good news! New simulator dates are now available for the FAA/ERAU Pilot Decision-Making Study being conducted at JetBlue University in Orlando (MCO).

This FAA-sponsored study is designed to take a fresh look at how line pilots make decisions in day-to-day operations and to confirm (or update) the decision-making models currently used in the literature.

We’re looking for current and qualified A320 Captains and First Officers based in the Orlando area. Ideally, participants come from A320 operators such as JetBlue, Spirit (including recently furloughed pilots), or Frontier.

New Available Sessions

Monday, October 20 — 0700–1100

Sunday, October 26 — 1100–1500

Wednesday, October 29 — 1100–1500

Wednesday, October 29 — 1900–2300

Each session lasts about 2.5–3 hours (briefing + sim leg + debrief), and participants will receive $300 compensation.

What to Expect

A LOFT-style sim leg that feels just like a normal line operation

All systems fully operational — just have fun, be yourself, and fly it like you would on the line

Bring your iPad for Jepps and your preferred checklist
