In training at Mesa- great instructors and atmosphere. I've passed all tests and orals so far.
However now I'm in cockpit procedures training in prep for sim training. However I cannot memorize and "get" flows and callouts. I've always been a single pilot so I've never had to deal with the crew concept.
I don't know if I should proceed into sim and risk flunking and hurting my career... or quit one and go back to single pilot ops.

And practice with your sim partner during off hours- having your sim partner there will help put things into context (not to mention, help you guys to work better as a crew)

Much agreed. Flows and profiles are best done outside of your sim sessions with your sim buddy.

Nah, you'll have ample time during training (provided you heed the advice here and put in the work!) I sought out and obtained a ton of class materials from people here before I started, and it did more harm than good; I didn't know what was important and what wasn't, so I tried to study everything, and my brain was a bit fried before I even walked in the door--not smart. The training dept will give you everything you need to know, when they want you to know it.

We're not allowed to share company materials with someone who isn't a (verified employee). It's considered safety sensitive, and both people could be fired.

So does anyone know the upgrade forecast for 2015? Are they going to increase/decrease or continue at the same rate?
