What I've been told is what was sold to us is that all the transactions are going to go through the system as they are received, and each transaction takes 6 seconds. If you consider that you're going to have 150-200+ pilots start dropping multiple transactions right at opening, I get how there could be a delay.
Does it always work perfect? Of course not, but it works, mostly.
And before you ask the very valid question of why does it take a computer in 2016 6 seconds to do anything, I agree with you. At the same time take a look at the Flica site. It's painfully obvious they fired their last web designer sometime in 1998. I doubt programming is their strong suit.

People get hung up on those words "real time."

New to the forum here, I have an upcoming interview. Do you guys know how many hours one could expect in the ATP/CTP sim and company sim for training? I'm cutting it close to 1500 and just curious if I'd be able to accumulate enough during training to hit the 1500 mark if my interview is successful. Thanks in advance.

Envoy is letting me start with a minimum of 1458 and the rest will be made up in the sim if I don't hit 1500 by the time trainin starts. I'm not sure if PSA has the same policy.
