Training at F9 is exponentially easier than whatever training you went through at your regional, in my opinion. We all have gripes from time to time, but the guys in the training department aren’t one of them. If you had an AQP training program at your regional, F9 will feel very slow and spoon fed.

Makes me feel better, my 121 was AQP and I thought it was a breeze to be honest. Although I had prior 135 jet experience. Hoping F9 feels the same way!! Any tips?

If you’ve got prior 135 jet experience, it won’t be much worse than a cakewalk overall. You’ll still need to study and be prepared, i.e. be a professional, but you’ll be fine. Also, if you’re not used to a crew environment, that will take some getting used to. Nothing to stress about overall.

Best tip I can give you is to go home or wherever you want to be during your down time. You’ll have multiple stretches of 5+ days off more than likely. Take some time to yourself. Other than that, showing up to FTDs with your flows memorized will make your life much, much easier. Also, no matter how many times you hear that you need to be working on your memory items, you won’t technically be tested on those until your oral, which won’t happen until after FTDs.

Thieves target hotel parking since a lot of people leave things in plain sight . Ie : back pack on seat or briefcase . If you remove any bags and backpacks and bring them inside you'll probably be ok.

Leave the car unlocked? Then someone would just steal the car.

Denver is having a city wide issue of car thefts everywhere. It's even hit the DIA parking lots.. its a mess. "DENVER — One car per hour. That's how many vehicles are stolen on average in the City of Denver every day.

Denver has seen one of the country's largest increases in auto theft since the COVID-19 pandemic started, with the number of reported stolen cars more than doubling.

Through June 19 of this year, 5,923 vehicles were stolen in Denver, compared with 2,547 from the same period in 2020, according to the Colorado Metropolitan Auto Task Force (C-MATT)."
