744driver 03-30-2016 03:18 PM

Good stuff, KYTBRD...I have notes from my initial training as an Atlas FE, 747 Classic FO, 744 FO, and 767 CA...and ALL training and checking events. And that is indeed a great source of information and guidance for the next event.

However, as you rightly pointed out, it is the newbie that may not know what to study, what will be asked of him/her in the Oral Exam (the type ride is mostly canned and one is fairly well prepared for it since you've rehearsed it for 8-10 simulator sessions), etc.

I still feel the Atlas program on the 747 is harder than it needs to be -- but not because it is some magic jet that only superhumans can fly, but rather because of the inconsistency of the examiners that don't follow PTS, their own question bank that is ostensibly there for the Orals, and in some cases their own egos!!

Your class seems to have figured it out, and had great success...and you my friend (and I know you) are an over-achiever so there is never a doubt about your performance!!

You really think any law firm sits around on any web board and trolls pilots all day? That was some dipsh*t who is now banned, along with all the other accounts he had.
