Ex mil IP 3k+, nothing wrong with wanting the condensed, it's how I like to memorize numbers. I still read the the main documents, so how bout you take a second to think before you get your internet courage.

Knock off the condescending bullshiit Vegas. I'm sure you read the COM and AOM Vol. 1 cover to cover before every training event and skip the oral study guide, right?

I agree. Fellow crememeber asked a question, let's show the same hospitality we were all shown as new hires. I don't care if there is hostility regarding negotiations or not, PILOTS are on the same side.

What are you complaining about now? I thought your whole point is about doing the very minimum while trying to get to the legacies because of the crappy contract. Maybe he doesn't care to do anything but the minimum like you to protest the wages. He's only trying to get a couple hundred hours of 121 time for the DL/UAL/AA app. You should welcome him with open arms.

Do know the flows! These are nearly day one items. Know those before FLL and everything will fall into place in training. There's also an A320 Guide app that is well worth the $40. You will be asked every singe light on every panel. It's a great way to learn those on a mobile device.
Welcome aboard!

Love getting more military. It will certainly help our cause by upping attrition. Not sure why they hire you guys. They must know you'll be gone ASAP. I know if I was hired today at seniority 12xx I'd be gone at the first chance. It's not horrible day to day but the money makes too much sense elsewhere.
If you do stay please do not factor your mil retirement and healthcare into your contract vote. This isn't a part time job for most of us. It's our only income and we expect to be paid on par or better than other Airbus pilots.

Limitaions
I Think your request was misunderstood by a few responders. I would suggest reading the whole COM Limitations section, being familiar with all, and making your own note cards on the bolded limitations as those will be expected to be "rote". Do not rely on previous gouge sheets as they may be dated.

I second that. Even with the .3, its not as if 3100 TT is an easy # to achieve at Uncle Sam's Flying Circus, so try not to worry about what you can't control, like the 4k requirement.
If you're 1/2 serious about Spirit, put on your suit, go to a job fair, and stand in line with the huddled masses. Practice your 5 minute pitch on why you're a good fit for Spirit, be ready for the 4000TT question, nail the answer, and finish with a smile and a firm handshake.
Then cross your fingers and wait to see if you set the hook or not.
