That is how I do it

I may only be human prone to mistakes, but I am one of the finest out there.

I offer proof.... My wife has not left me and taken all my riches and wealth that I have aquired from Trans States.

I rest my case

HAHA

After almost 9 hours of waiting, I finally got into the sim. I was nervous, and I think it showed. I remembered to get the gear down. I started thinking about how everyone at airlinepilotforums was counting on me, so I stepped up my game and passed. Thanks for the well wishes. It really wasn't that bad. I of course had a lot of critique for myself, but on the whole, it wasn't bad. I didn't blow anything. I went around on the no-flap landing because I thought I was eating up too much runway before touching down. The checkairman told me he thought I'd have been fine, but he applauded me for getting out of a situation I didn't want to be in. Came back around to a longer runway and landed fine. So now, bring on the LOFT. I'm ready for a little relaxation and normalcy.

One step at a time beyotch. Do the LOFT. Get through IOE and you can start to really have fun.

Keep your nose clean for the first year (well, always, but especially the first year) and you're golden.

But if you passed the initial checkride you have passed a big hurdle. Cool!

Welcome to the club, Iflyjets4food!!!

Remember to bring some clean underwear for IOE.... I almost crapped my pants on my first CAT II ils. And the plane flies NOTHING like the sim.... you'll appreciate how the real 145 flies- especially in the crosswind landings.

Again, congrats!!!!
