Read the article in this link. It has previously been published in two aviation magazines and is reprinted on my site with permission. Anybody that has never been through an airline training event should take a look at it:

Playing the Game: An Insider's Guide to Successful Airline Simulator Training

Nice web page...I've seen some that were absolutely horrible and made me embarassed to be a pilot - private pilot. However, I still had to look down in humiliation. Yours is a positive example.

I went through the training at TSA last January only to get furloughed by July. But I remember it pretty well, and according to some friends that just went through, nothing has changed. TSA is all about limiations and memory items for F/O's. So as soon as you get your SOP start on those. They're gonna prepare you pretty well for your oral, but people do still fail, so don't by any means, take it lightly. Beware of gouges any older than a few months, because there is some bogus material out there. All the writtens are pretty straight forward, and you should be able to score 90's and better on those without trying realy hard. Somebody said previously that the CPT at his airline and his previous one was a *****, but I can say with some certainty that TSA was not one of those airlines. The CPT was pretty much just a learning session as opposed to a test. So when you do finally get there, your priorities should be something like this.
memory items/limitations then systems on the 145 then the GOM then profiles and flows. Have fun in the Jungle Jet!

Good article.

What he said is what we tell our new guys...

Call outs, profiles, memory items, limitations, and flows...have these down cold before sim #1.
