Thanks in advance.


Study guide and fault lights! If you can get through that, you are solid!

Awesome thanks. Hopefully the CSI’s shed some light on the systems stuff.

I’ll add Limitations, Memory items and proficiency items to this list. You need to rattle these off comfortably during the oral. If you can do that and then fault lights/ study guide/ general systems knowledge, you’re Golden.

Look at the syllabus and pay attention to the homework. There’s no reason to get ahead. Just study what they tell you when they tell you to. Read the pertinent AOM chapters and study guide questions and you’ll be fine.

It was my first 121 training. If I can get through it, you can too. CSIs are only like six hours total of your day. I just spent every morning walking on the hotel treadmill until I had everything read that I needed. Also, you should get at least a free day or two before your oral. Use it to read over the oral exam guide as many times as you can stand.

It’s new SOP, I assume you follow this
You what else I do non-standard? When external power is available, and the airplane has been switched off less than six hours, and the battery voltage is above 25.5V I switch the external power on.

What about background checks and CASS? Seems like they’re taking longer than normal for everyone in the class. I kind of get the feeling that they do it until a certain part of training so people don’t go home and get off track.

As you should. Keep up the good work.
