What that might be, take a guess. it's the only reason I see old man Hulas bleeding money like that.

Not sure how other airlines will do it, we implement AQP training. All and all though it just felt like a recurrent check ride, no real big deal. Also the SIC restriction on the CL-65 was removed.

As I said in my previous post the whole event was nothing more than a recurrent check ride with a a few more maneuvers that we should already know how to do, stalls, steep turns, wind shear recovery, etc... I even taxied from the right seat.

The next day was the the actual LOE flight, we use AQP training, it was one leg. The captain gets sick on the leg and passes out, the SIC must now act as PIC, continue the flight, nearest suitable airport is the destination at the time he becomes sick, get a wind shear on short final, do the escape maneuver, come back around now that the winds have magically calmed down and several aircraft behind you make it in, park the aircraft on the runway for emergency personal and done. I am sure every airline's scenario will be different, but as far as the maneuvers these are simple things that we should already be able to preform on any given day.

The oral was also very company specific, op specs etc, and aircraft specific. Go in prepared, just like any other check ride, and there will be no issues. Good luck to all!

Forgot to mention that I didn't have to go out and retake the written the one I had was over 5 years old
