Additionally, the common thread among the folks we TBNT or fail the sim in training is below average IFR competency.

When you say below competency, HOW below are you talking? Is the sim just approaches or do they have you fly routes?



I'm not a CFII, and therefore rarely fly IFR. But I can fly an ILS pretty well. That being said, i've been doing it on steam gauges and not glass recently. But if its just flying approaches I think I would manage.



So is it that they cant fly approaches? Or whats the deal usually? They cant read the charts?

Does Planesense offer Family Insurance as an option?

What's the companies policy on working elsewhere while working for PlaneSense? Its crossed my mind to continue instructing on my off days if possible. If not, that's cool too.

Also, in regards to the post above, does that mean the classes for the rest of the year are full? I'd like to get in with the company before the end of the year if possible.
