Thanks guys, puts me a bit at ease. Looking forward to this new adventure!

Well shoot! Why didn't you tell me that earlier! Hahah jk!

I've been reading through every document they've told us to read, and let me tell you...it's TEDIOUS. Over 100 pages in the AIM alone! Still haven't finished all the materials they suggested, and i've been going at it for a while now, for 2-4 hours a day (depending on the day).

Nearly finished though, then i'll focus on the POH stuff and battling my own personal demons relating to IFR information.

Tpauly, all the stuff they tell you to read before hand (aside from the POH) is pretty basic stuff. It's all instrument procedures essentially. Like mentioned already, the POH which is in the crew room is easily accessible if you just google it.

I do have a question for the rest of you guys though. Would it be beneficial to have a printed paper copy of the POH? I looked into it and itll cost about 130 bucks to have it printed up at Office Depot. Not sure if I should spend the money or just print out the important documents (speeds/weights/etc)

I think you brought up a good point... You do need to be up on your IFR skills and procedures.

Definitely NOT worth the $130 to print the AFM. I referenced it a handful of times and the .pdf will be on your training iPad.

Perfect! I was hoping i'd hear something like this. My iPad has a cracked screen and it bothers me to read from it. Knowing we have a training iPad is a relief! Thanks

Welcome aboard to all the new hires. Hope everyone made it through ok in your class.

I have noticed that Planesense is only advertising for direct entry Captain, no mention of First Officers. Is this correct? Thanks.

Looks like the FO position has been taken down off the website too. I'd guess they've filled up classes far enough out that they're waiting to interview more people, but I'm not HR or a recruiter.

Just a couple days ago, they were advertising FO & Captain positions on Climbto350. I don't know if we've filled our classes for the year or what but put your resume in regardless if you're interested. Can't hurt and I know people regularly drop out and they need people to move up and fill in. One of the guys in the Jan class was originally scheduled for the July class if I'm recalling correctly.

On their website, this is correct. However on some of their facebook posts it states differently. My friend recently sent in his application (while their website wasn't showing they were hiring) and already has set up an interview.
