Guess you're one of the guys he's talking about. Sad part is, most of them don't know it. Only flew with a couple who have the time, but chose to bypass for a couple of extra months since this was going to be their first 121 PIC gig. It's not rocket science, but it is big step up for a lot of people.
Good luck. Congrats on the upgrade.

Just read "Heavy". Got it.
Not sure why he had to put in his .02 about the good advice above though...

Congrats to the new FOs on the quick upgrade. But, remember you need to know CPZ policies, procedures, and limitations cold. I've been flying with FOs who are good enough pilots but just don't know the FOM/AOM well enough. It's exciting to be able to hold captain, I know. But, consider flying the line a bit longer than you technically have to in order to become comfortable with this airline first.

Because everyone that is upgrading either has significant mil pic and 500 hours or 1000 hours of 121 time.....and everyone is acting like it's a brand new 172 cfi that's upgrading

Insert my name here. Have the time, would have been in this last class but would like to spend more time learning the operation. I do not want to go into Monterrey, Mexico for the first time as the HMFIC.

Never understood the big deal with Monterrey. I went there all the time when I was at XJT. They always vectored us to the LOC or VOR course. Fly what's on the charts and you're good

Agree...I've flown in many countries and the approach into mty is pretty straight forward
