crj 700 drivers
 

Current and former crj 700 drivers please PM me.

What's sup?

PMed you.,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Does it count if I'm qualified to fly the 700 but am not senior enough to actually hold 700 trips?

In training for the 700 now

I've seen a -700 a bunch of times. I might PM you

Pm you about what?

hahahahahhaha

To see if it's shiney enough? LOL

Thanks for all the help guys. Lots of good study material to stick my nose in.

So you were looking for study guides and had to be all secretive about it?

Not sure how i am being secretive. I am looking for study guides for the crj 700. Is that out in the open enough for you?

Really? Give the guy a break. No wonder this forum is going downhill day by day..

In all reality it's better to just wait for whatever your company gives you. Not sure where you're going but I'd wait until they give you whatever literature they use.

Yea, I have to agree with this. Different companies have different requirements and if I give you one companies material, which might also be illegal, it also may not be consistent with others programs.

-For example, Eagle/Envoy 700s have main gear doors, and I hear (correct me if wrong, but this is just for example) Skywest 700s don't, and thus are limited to .78 (?), so there is just one potential problem.

My best advice, and I have four type ratings, is to get the training material you are issued, and nail it hard. That is what you will be tested on. Good luck and don't worry.

PS; And the 700 is a nice aircraft. My favorite so far.

Most OMs have SSI material in it and can't be give to people outside of the company. Systems books aren't generally SSI.

If you are driving yourself nuts waiting for your training material, just google "training material, crj700" and you will get a lot of information. Just be careful because of what I mentioned.

.78?? What a buzzkill!

I call BS on that one, what does having four type rating have to do with anything. It can't heard to get ahead of the ball game. Systems and Limitation are pretty much the same regardless of where you go. The companies may have slightly different ways of doing things but you'd spend very little time figuring out the difference. I advise anyone to know as much as they can before showing up for class. And yes it would be best if the info came from someone at the company you're going to

Wrong.

SkyW .82 limit in RVSM and .85 below

I stand corrected but my point stands. Different companies have different numbers and configurations. FWIW, Eagle is .83 RVSM.

Hey, do what you want. I am just telling you what has worked for me.

Hmmm, I think the "united express" is strong with this future gojetter.:p

Almost all of XJT's 700 gear doors as been MEL'd. There are some weight penalties and restricts your planned cruise altitude to 2000ft below optimum. No speed restrictions

Nevermind, point already made.

This isn't true. I tried the "get ahead" idea once and actually created more work for myself because I had to re-learn the new numbers. Then when you take the written test, you have 2 answers to the question in your head but can't remember which one is correct.
An example I saw on one was "when does the AC generator come online?" The answer they were looking for was 996 prpm but the info I had been studying was 1,000 prpm. Both were options on the multiple choice test but only one was correct and I couldn't remember which one.

As someone else mentioned, find the smart guys in the class, get together with them and hit the books in your room after class. The guys that struggle are usually the ones that are down in the bar drinking, while you're up in your room studying.

Save the partying until after you pass your checkride and you'll be fine.

Is that where OP's going?

It is so cute when youngsters use the term "Driver" instead of Pilot, lol..

She posted a thread about commuting to or from DFW and now asking about crj700s, could the OP be actually considering Envoy?

Think about Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 or the 9/11 terrorists. Systems knowledge can go along way to aiding someone who intends to takeover a plane. That is reason some people are reluctant to just send you a system manual.

I am a guy first of all. I am considering Envoy. And for the record i have had pilots that have sent me study material that was issued to them from the airlines that i want to work for so thank you for that. :cool:

CRJ700 Study Material
 

I have seen some flash cards on 2 websites cram.com & quizlet.com

Can someone confirm the quality & reliability of the information of these flash cards...

SW is. . 83m RVSM and .82 RVSM in the 900

If you are considering envoy, I wouldn't get too wrapped up in it.

Focus on limitations, profiles/callouts, the cockpit safety inspection, cockpit preflight, know what each button does and each light means, one level deep. Not too deep on systems. If you can answer the oral study guide questions (which you have to find your own answers to anyway) you should be good

A lot of the limitations on the CRJ at eagle don't have numbers associated, the answer to a "what is the Max speed/temp/etc" type of question is red line 95% of the time.

I'd be leary of the flash cards you find online. You always have to verify the flash card answers with your official source (which takes away from your precious study time), and I think most of the benefit of using flash cards comes from making them yourself.
