Everything going good these days for you Bolo? Hope all is well.
The primary Frontier sims are owned by a company called Strategic Simulator Solutions. They're usually referred to as "Triple S" so I might be a tad off regarding which each "S" stands for, but it's something like that. It's my understanding that we're their only customer for A320 sims. I think a regional carrier (Skywest maybe) might conduct ground schools there and might also have an RJ sim of some flavor on site as well. I'm obviously not a training department guy, so my intel is limited to my sim visit every 6 months.

In any case, the SSS sims are slightly east of Tower road just north of where Tower Road intersects with I-70. They're probably a 5-10 minute drive from the Frontier general offices.

The SKW sim is a e-jet sim.

So it sounds like the sim training is most likely going to be in Denver. Is transportation provided from the training center to the sim building? Trying to figure out if I'm going to drive a car out.
Thanks everyone

No, they do not provide transportation from the GO to the sim. Looks like you will be driving your car out to Denver unless you can hook up with a classmate that has a car out here already.

When in training you're considered based in Denver - so transportation is up to you to during ground school and sim. I suggest you drive or carpool with someone in class. Walking or riding a bike would prove very difficult in the winter. If you want to PM me I can send you the number to a crash pad that people on the forum are talking about. Congrats and welcome aboard!

Hello all

I'll be meeting the bare mins in a few weeks (2600TT 1500Multi 700TPIC). I have no internal recs, but I'm going to attend the job fair in January. Are my chances for getting a interview fair?

Has anybody heard any news on potential growth in ord? Just saw an interesting news article a day ago about an upcoming FA hiring event in ord (Dec). Frontier said they are looking for 500 more FAs primarily for that base..... Curious what is going on there and wondering if I'm missing something.

I got the call yesterday (30 Nov) for a Dec interview. I attended the FLL job fair, and she mentioned that as a factor (I also have a Silver Bullet.) I won't be able to attend the Dec interview, so she slipped me to Jan. Dates for Dec interviews are the 15th and 16th (I think - it was that week for sure.) January dates are TBD, but will be during the third week, so sometime around the 20th.

Pretty fair if you show up and interact like you're someone who wants to be there and is fun to fly with.
