In speaking with my buddies at other regionals that are “all AQP” on the Ejet, they seem to have it easier in their training. Based on what they tell me in comparing training, AQP is a good thing if we can get passed the FAA approval.

What is the best thing to prepare for training, I recently got an IPC and plan to continue to fly as much instrument airplane as I can afford prior to class date. I also got a link to the study guide so I'll be going over that. I'm guessing know the limitations etc prior to class. Any online study stuff for the E175? Any pointers greatly appreciated.

Glass Time is better than Steam Gauges as far as instrument airplane.

Thanks. Is it worthwhile to get Xplane or anything similar to familiarize with myself better with glass?

I wouldn’t waste the time. There is plenty of time and resources here to get familiar with whatever aircraft you end up on, but stick time in general will help when it comes to sims. Those people lacking recency in the cockpit are struggling the most

I agree. Get in a real SIM or a real airplane. Get some time in busy airspace. Some glass is an added benefit.
