I'll be there Sunday afternoon... I'd be up for getting together Sunday or Monday evening. I'm using Monday to start into limitations etc. but getting together for dinner or something would be cool...

I'll drop you a PM when I get into town.

We can go from there.


Look forward to meeting everybody this week.

If its anything like the 1900 training, you'll get a lot of stuff thrown at you at the very end and wish you were better prepared... of course the Ale House around the corner helped with that...

You mean the male house....

Yeah hopefully we can get our hands on stuff Monday to start studying limitations etc.

I just read about your airline in Air Transport World magazine.

Sounds like a great airline.

Where are your bases?

How is the pay?

Those of you whom have been thru this before have any pointers on how best to study, and what priority to memorize stuff in etc?

Also any pointers on what to pack/ bring for this ground school from school supplies and beyond would be helpful. I'm thinkink so far highlighters, notebooks, pens , index cards...

You're taking a crash course on the airplane and systems, so whatever you need to feel comfortable helping you study at the end of the day is what you need to bring. It will be like trying to drink water from a fire hose, even for those that have been through this before.

I personally end up highlighting and tabbing my manuals, but that is just me. Know the important stuff like the back of your hand, and know how to find the rest of the information fast.

I find that small study groups (4 people max - i.e. two sets of sim partners if assigned that early) work better than larger groups. Quiet settings. Meet often. Ask questions and get answers to stuff you don't know from the instructors.



Does anybody know if Silver gives you a flight deck poster to use for home study?
