Simple question I asked, you answered it in a passive aggressive manner so thanks for that!
Now, about that dribble!
Now, about that dribble!
If you're not willing to AT LEAST read a few pages of the hiring thread on APC before throwing in your app I fear this might not be for you.
Am I getting old? What's going on with the youths these days?

No you’re just correct. The current view of normal is vastly different than previous generations. You can’t blame them though since this is what we worked hard to achieve.

Hello all. I had some questions about the three weeks in Dallas (ATP/CTP, Type and F9 Flows). I wanted to make sure I got a head start on the material before I show up.
I've started on the online ground school that needs to be completed before we show up for ATP CTP. Also got Shepperd Air and am looking over the questions for the ATM post ATP CTP.
As far as the rest of the material sent (flows, limits, memory items etc.), how much of that should I memorize before showing up for the type rating and then the F9 specific training? I understand the law of primacy and I did not want to memorize anything incorrectly if it will be taught in class the correct way.
Thank you

They give you F9 material from F9 but they don’t really follow that. That’s a “if you have time after the Dallas shenanigans” scenario. A few guys in the recent class went and it is different once you get to F9 from what I was told. I would not study the F9 material because it’ll get confusing trying to switch to what ATP wants you to do. After you check the box and pass the ride then I would hit it hard on the F9 material they send. If you do you will be far ahead of the game and feel a lot less stress trying to learn that while trying to learn everything else that is needed.
