My name is Darell Brault. I had an interview in september and my times then were about 1000tt and 22 multi. It took about two to three days to know after the interview. They were calling my cell, my home phone back in michigan and emailing me all at the same time. After the interview I was pretty pumped and positive about it because I felt I had a good one but I was worried about how I did on the sim. Im just focused (and worried) about training right now. I heard its pretty tough and I havent flown in over two months. |

If you cant do that then maybe a simulator? Either way don't sweat training too much, it's hard but not THAT hard, and the instructor is there to help you through it not just wash you out. Good luck | |

Your instructors won't encourage you like you've been encouraged by the rest of your instructors. They are there to see if you can be rattled. Don't let them get to you. Study your butt off. Start reading the AIM now. Read it cover to cover. Read everything they give you and study with your other classmates. Its not a competition so be there for each other.

| I got that same advice when I went through and thought it was crap. Pay attention to what they teach, read the material and you'll be fine. 95% or higher on all my tests. The other thing is work together. My class did and were the first ones in a while to actually all do 90%or better on the final so we got free beer!

Dunno about the ride alongs, the TSA just hunkered down on our rider policy and made it so that even our spouses can't ride on the system anymore.. so I doubt it.

I wish I would have gone with AirNet instead of the 135 outfit I flew for. I've fueled the heck out of some AirNet lears, barons, navajos and caravans. Always wanted to fly for them but went with someone else because of location. Most of the pilots I have met at AirNet are pretty nice guys. Some have been there a long time. Really good company to fly for.

Was it 607 back then?I am pretty sure we no longer give the rides, since, as stated above, our spouses can't even go along with us now...my guess is your ride was prior to 9/11. Oh, and Dbrault, congrats on the class date. I haven't been through LCK in a while (other than weekends when nobody's around), but some of the other guys can give you an idea on how long people have been waiting for routes. | |

Are you in GFK now, or are you going to be in town during our M&G on Monday??? See the Meet and Greet forums if you're interested...heck, a few of you UND people should turn it into a $100 burger type flight and meet up with some people. | |

| I don't have the desk type yet, so I've gotta keep current by stealing others' runs.

| Old Skool | Run is alright down here. I'm in the Caravan. Ice really wasn't a factor down in St. Louis. It was +2c at the surface but +9c at 8,000 so for the time being it was alright. Had to blow the boots three times on the ILS coming into Palwaukee earlier. Freezing rain is a scary thing. Thank god for heated hangers because it looked like a slushy on the wings when I got out.
