Hangars and a laundry bag. You won’t be doing laundry at the hotel all the time but if you can fit those in your bag it would be helpful

I know it’s nice to have a car, but do you need it? Can you walk anywhere from the hotel?

Houston (all of Texas for that matter) isn't a pedestrian friendly environment. The closest thing with in walking distance of the hotels is a little strip mall with a pizza place and Hoots saloon. There is a Gas station, Jack n the box, and Taco bell too but its not the best fast food. Most of the good stuff is northeast of the airport by over by the mall. If you can bring a car, bring it, there is a bunch of downtime in the training schedule.

Hopefully one of the three people that’s in class with you will have a car..

Never visited Houston, have you?

Think 100 degrees in the shade... except no shade, and humidity striving for triple digits and almost making it there.

Thank you for the pointers. Is it true there are only 3 people in the class or were guys just being facetious.

Enjoy your time while in training
great staff at the training center. Plenty of help if you need it. FMS labs are available when class is not in session.
Everything you need to pass your training will
be provided to you;

Depending on the hotel you stay at, they typically do a Walmart/HEB grocery run at least once a week. Sheraton does not do this(only for United mainline pilots)
The training center has catering for lunch ;chick fil a , bbq, and some other joint. Bring cash on hand. Expect to pay $8-12 on the meal.
