It was taken away for a while, I am talking about the written exam, it is given during systems......I guess the last few years you were just required on your oral to know them, now I guess they just started giving the written also again about a month ago.

Also, a guy in our class didn't pass it on the first try. He got a second attempt. Unfortunately, he had some other issues later on and didn't make it.

Sim
I just passed the check ride. We didn't do any of the departures or approaches for JFK. Some guys got the LDA in to DCA. My ride concentrated on the visual approach....As in your at 10,000' on the down wind and cleared to land.

I started in March also and never took the memory items test. In fact the most I got test on them was from my sim instructor. My oral, I got asked a total of 3 (THREE!) memory items. And one was what to do with emergency power only msg. (Which is ADG deploy) However do be prepared for non-memory limitations.

Memory Items
Even though some folks may not have been asked many I would make it a point to know chapter 2. I was asked a few things that weren't doubled boxed but would sure be important on a flight.

The reason they brought back the memory items/limitations test is because people have been busting the oral because of Chapter 2/Memory items. There are a few IOE captains that like to quiz you on limitations during IOE trips
Just make sure you know them cold.
Congrats!! Enjoy your time off before IOE.

During ground "weekends" were Sat/Sun. During sim, it all depends on what schedule you bid. We're 3 on, 1 off, 3 on 2 off, 3 on, 2 off, 4 on. (If I remember correctly without looking...) I hear IOE is about a 2 wk wait right now.
