As a foreigner going through visa process at the moment. To prepare myself what can I study to get myself ready for training. Yes I can pick up the FAR/AIM and try to absorb as much as I said however can anyone point to the key important topics where i can start for now that will get be through training?

Cheers

Passing training is mostly being able to fly the sim so in that sense it doesn’t matter where you’re from. The classroom stuff anyone can get through. If you have no jet time, turbine time, glass cockpit time or much IFR time I’d be worried. There’s not much you can do other than practice your IFR on flight sim.

Not anymore thank goodness..

The “Pay raise” that was supposed to come out last week, which was delayed to this week, has been once again delayed to next week.

mañana never comes.

ma·ña·na
adverb

1. in the indefinite future (used to indicate procrastination).
   "the exhibition will be ready mañana"

and yet it went not effect 6 days ago

You mean it will be back paid to Oct 1st… but let’s not kid ourselves here and expect anything spectacular.

unless you’ve already been paid for October first, it’s not back pay.

Sorry… meant it will be retro. So all this OT I’m doing this week will have to have $36 per hour added to it

What are the new rates?
