Another situation that I have is that I start class with Silver on July 9th. In which I will be engrossed in training for 6 weeks. At the end of those 6 weeks I will be moving, doing IOE, and sitting reserve (which from what I am hearing is not real reserve, but 80 or so block hours a month). I am thinking that it will be hard for me to do the renewal course within that time period considering that I will be busy.

Boo hoo. Suck it up and get it done or let it lapse.

Ok. I guess I will just ask the POI at Silver so I can get the correct answer.

What are typical trips out of FLL like? Can you get many out and backs or do you guys spend many nights on the road? I was under the impression that most flights were out and backs. Can someone chime and describe what a typical schedule is like.
Thanks |

I'm sure if you do a search you can find out how to do the AF course pretty easily and it's not time consuming at all. |
As a pilot here with a current CFI/CFII/MEI I will just pay the cash to renew them. Easier to pay then to let it lapse and go through more hurdles to get it renewed, even if I don't use them.
Anyone else transitioning to the Saab? I start in a class soon. |

To repeat what is usually said: "One thing's for sure, you will not get the job if you don't apply." |
Hey Pook, how come you couldn't get the CAPT position even though you have the required times? I'm interviewing for the same, but it would be a bummer to be hit with that news...since it's my whole reason for applying. Hopefully they're not bs'ing
I can't pm you..just email me at eman33055@yahoo; my interview is the 26th and I wanted to get some info. Thanks man. |
