That way when you get into the sim your not spending the first 4 hour session learning to start an engine or run through a checklist/procedure.

Once you're in the sim things happen pretty quick. I think you get 8-10 sessions before the check ride.

You'll also get posters of the flight deck and you can do the flows in your hotel room.

The first two weeks of training focus on the memory items and limitations. Then for the last week or so of systems learn the systems.
Then from there on out know your call outs and profiles cold.
Once you finish training you need to learn SABRE in and out and figure out a way to manipulate the reserve system.

If all else fails tell them you an F-16 pilot and a firefighter. Usually works up front.

I am furloughed from NetJets and received an email to call to schedule an interview. I was curious to hear from others who are furloughed that have interviewed at Eagle whether they ask you to resign your seniority at your old company. I would like to work there to continue flying and keep current, but I really don't want to give up my NJ seniority number. It is a frustrating situation. I ran into this interviewing at Air Wisconsin earlier this year. I understand where they're coming from with not wanting people leaving soon after training, but my furlough is going to last a few years at minimum, which seems like plenty of time for them to get a return on the training investment.

when he said "lose the new hires" I took that as not a failure, but the fact that they don't follow along or keep up 100% right away. I could be wrong.

i was told i have to give up mine but hell will freeze over before my last company recalls so its not an issue. honestly i cant piece together why you'd want to head in this direction but i can say that even if your recall is a few years away at the soonest, if you had the resume to get hired at NJA you have the resume to take any better job that comes along before a potential recall. that would be my guess.
