Default SIC checkride passed

Well I finally finished my sim training for PSA. It was a good experience and the instructors were great. The training was done at Flight Safety in St. Louis. Now I just sit and wait for the IOE trips to begin. See you guys on the line.

Congrats brother!

I think Randall just passed his line check yesterday so he is the first of the JAN 21 guys to finish IOE. I am halfway through my second IOE trip right now. Enjoy your time off!

My instructor was Ed. Pretty good guy. I just looked at my schedule and I am off until at least the 20th of this month. Travis has his first IOE starting next monday. So I am guessing it will be about two weeks before I start flying. Which is fine with me. That means I won't have to sit reserve in DAY.

Keep in mind you are in Dayton until completion of IOE.... Therefore you might be at the mercy of good ole scheduling and where they need you. Speak with Ethan or Jeremy about that however it does read completion of IOE......

He was my instructor! Great guy. I had to sit reserve in DAY for 2 days before relocation. Wasn't tooooooo bad, except seeing the Dayton airport hotel again

PS: Paul is right, you sit and sit and sit, then pee, then sit on reserve!

They seem do to a lot of deadheads here. But then again, maybe they do that at other regionals as well. I have a friend that was in the november class and is on reserve right now. He seems to be flying a lot. His first IOE trip they were going to have him go to DAY and then deadhead him back to charlotte, where he lives, to start his trip. That didn't make sense to me. But the CA told him to just meet him in CLT. On a side note, I did see EDUC8-or while I was there. Or someone that looks just like him.
