Thanks all!

Study nothing before ground school, I mean it take it easy your 1st 121 training program is gonna be stressful no need studying the wrong incorrect stuff, if anything just read through the flows and all that stuff just to get familiar, they will teach you the systems etc................... Know the limitations, COLD, but agian one can memorize those in a 1 day, so what I did was memorize like 5 every day, sounds dumb but after 2 days of repeating the same damn thing every 20 mins, your not going to forget it.


The biggest thing I see people having problems with is getting to into the systems, have a working knowledge and an understanding of the systems, but dont go crazy your a pilot not a mechanic, also you will learn a lot about the A/C systems on the line :) good luck, and stay away from the F/A's...............there will be plenty of time for Shenanigans later......believe me ;)

Know your flows, Know the movements and where to look during the flows. Dont stress out trying to understand why your doing each thing until you get to class. good luck

I think they're putting some of you in the Sheraton. Saw a few U27** numbers on the sign in sheet the other day. Is that for training or IOE?

I posted my experience at Aviation Interviews. Know your most recent multi and have your paperwork in the right order.

Good luck!

I have been wondering this for a while. I have an interview comming up and I am dreading the "do you have any accident/incidents?" question. Are they talking about flying or driving as well cause I have a few toll runs and one for a stop sign which caused an accident on my record. The accident was almost ten years ago though but it is on my record. Should I tell them this?

What about misdemeaners that ended without a conviction? Plead no contest.

I am not a bad person really :)

With that question, they are referring to airplane accidents or incidents. When I interviewed, they never even asked about traffic violations. That was two years ago, though.
