I interviewed in March I believe; I was planning on leaving regardless of the contract with UAL.

You will be fine my man, they will work with you if you even need it. I bet it goes better than you think it will anyway. Congrats on the job

If ur in a flight safety sim use very little rudder and keep those wings level during rotation. Rotate to 10 degrees initially so you don't get slow.

Or don’t overthink it and just fly through the imaginary goalposts at the end of the runway by looking out the front.

Pfft it’s all the same. Point is just keep it straight/parallel down the runway before rotating.

No, he’s right. It’s really not that difficult. The things I worry most about doing are the callouts and remembering to turn the knob to V2. Why do so many shake in there knees for V1 cuts?

Judging by his post history he doesn't work for any airline so take it with a very small grain of salt

Failure/Fire/missed is much more prone to failure.
