Yah. I’ve been curious as to why F9 didn’t try to buy SSS when it was sold to Airbus. If we’re really going to grow as much as is claimed within the next 5 to 10 years, it would seem logical to have complete control of both the costs and the logistics/scheduling of the training device(s).
SSS and/or Airbus will certainly be making a profit renting sim time. Seems like the greedy bastards at Indigo would want to capture this profit rather than making money for a different entity.
All in the world of high finance, I guess. They’re saving so much on my wages that they don’t have to be careful in other aspects of the business. :-)

We have to have a LOS now because of our codeshare with volaris... line oriented simulation or some such bs... I did one yesterday.... it’s basically a loft... they said 4 years ago when I started that we’d probably be aqp in 2 years... believe it when you see it type of scenario... the check airmen seem to think it’s going that way

Hopefully you guys get AQP. It's so much better for everyone!

AQP varies from airline to airline. At my previous job AQP was once a year for everyone, with two sim sessions on consecutive days. Sim 1 was maneuver validation, basically practicing lots of v1 cuts, and all kinds of ILS approaches with missed approaches and a landing here and there, stalls, and unusual attitude recoveries. Sim 2 was a LOFT and practicing a couple more things. It was a very neat program.

Aqp is worthless! Rolling PC/PT is way way more productive use of sim time! Unless you don’t care about improving as a pilot, and just want an easy checkride...then aqp is better...both Fo’s and Ca’s should go every 6 months though. I can agree with that at least.
