Looking forward to joining you all in the flight deck soon.

As the poster noted above, that will be absolutely fantastic being able to sit reserve from home. SO much better than sitting reserve at a crashpad!

Are the 200’s really getting inflight entertainment? I wonder if they’re sticking around longer then we thought, hmm. Hard to watch a movie on DEN-HYS.

Hard to watch a movie on most all of the 200’s flights.

Agreed. But isn’t DEN-PSC on a 700/900? Not a 200.

Some times UAL runs an A319 to EUG, other times its a 175, and sometimes its a 200. Similar story with PSC, except I haven't seen them get a 319, ever.

I fly to PSC from SEA on Horizon three times a year to visit friends. Cannot recall 200s in the last decade going in there from DEN. Always 700/900.

If you need extra time, insist upon it. One session is totally free and never tracked after you get it. They don’t like giving it, so dig your heels in if you think you need. It’s waaaaaaaaaaaay better then an oops on a validation- which is FAR from free.

Know your callouts cold. For you and for your sim partner. Hard to learn the machine while you’re trying to spit words you forgot. Esp if you’re PM…… Don’t do that to your partner.
