I initially said I had the time... would you invest in the multi time without guarantee of an interview/job? Idk... if I'm being honest...
"...if I'm being honest..." Yeah, just don't. Quit while you're behind...

It is a vastly better job than instructing, but it isn't a career destination in today's market.

A LOFT is sometimes flown before the checkride for additional reps in the sim (depends on training manual for Part 135 operators and customer request for Part 91). In addition, 1 or 2 sessions can be added prior to the checkride in the event a student is struggling. This profile is roughly the same across the spectrum of business jets trained by that vendor. I can't speak to the profiles on large airline equipment.

I assume the PT is in an actual cockpit mockup? FSI seems to use a combinations of a real worn out FMS coupled with a computer screen…. Super realistic 😂
