Another ignorant post by Centerline. Do not try to study other guides with regard to the Airbus - we have different procedures, buttons, engines, etc. from many other Airbus operators and that will only dilute things for you. The training is more than enough to teach you what you need to know. Welcome to Frontier - great group of people here, and you'll have a lot of fun. Now, if we can just get the pay where it needs to be...

 

I don't fly the Airbus so I'm not hip on the differences, but how much difference is there between a 320 and a 330? Would that be the same rate as well?
I'm glad to see that Frontier has seemed to right the ship and figured out a way to survive and prosper as of late. It's a proud industry name from back in the 40's and the Monarch days.

 

I didn't mean to suggest any "offense" at you trying to help. I would venture to guess that site is well-written. I'm sure the post was done with the best of intentions. It was just a post coming from a prep company claiming to know a lot about Frontier that was simply ignorant. Not offensive, but just ignorant. I don't believe you know squat about Frontier, and claiming that you have helped "many" get hired at Frontier is a subjective term - how "many" exactly? What is the rough percentage of those you have prepped versus those who have been hired? False claims by an outfit claiming to "help" pilots really ****es me off and will continue to be the brunt of disparaging comments by me and others as long as it continues.

With you having not been around for any length of time as a company as well as the fairly short amount of time Frontier has been hiring, I don't believe you should take liberties when it comes to how qualified your outfit is when it comes to prepping folks for Frontier. The numbers simply don't add up. No offense was taken, but your ignorance of the culture, training, interviewing ("the job is yours to lose...") and daily life at Frontier is pretty overwhelming. You may excel at other interviews, but Frontier is clearly not your "bag".

 

Those are your words…

Was simply giving that individual a link to review Airbus basics, if he chooses to look. F9 has a great training program, I apologize then for posting that link. It wasn't any bad intention, I just thought it would help since the website has some good info in it.

 

Which words are "my words?" This is an opportunity to brag, if there is any substance to your claims of having helped "many" get hired, as you just claimed and have claimed before. Is there a reason you are avoiding the question?

 

Tough Crowd.

 

Welcome to Frontier!

As for a guide...sure you can look that site that over, but ONLY if you promise to not to commit any of it to memory! If you are simply trying to get an overview of the Airbus...that's fine. But like many have said, our training will teach you what you need to know.

Here are a few big tickets items to know: (Yes, sarcasm is intended)

Engines - Big
Luggage storage in cockpit - lots
Speed - fast enough (you get paid by the minute)
Weight - placarded
tires - 6 total
Pilots - 2 of us up there
FA's - Sometimes 3 or 4 and soon to come 5
Jumpseats in cockpit - 2 (good to know if you're a commuter)

I'm sure I'm missing a few items.

Good luck

 

This is a tough crowd I never said I wanted Airbus material to memorize word for word so I knew everything before training. I just asked for some good info on the Airbus, that's all. Nothing more. Try and chill out a little. And I didn't ask for anybody's opinion on what to study so I don't know why everybody is getting all bent out of shape over it.

Any type beyond the 320 family triggers a reopener. The 330/40/50/80s are similar to the 320variants but require different type ratings.

 

Don't forget the crew meals : Pringles, almond M&M's, beef jerky, rice krispy treats, gummy bears, Coke not Pepsi !!!
