That's what i hear. Now i just need to find some Jepp charts to study since we don't use them at our flight school, and...
how screwed am i going to be with the sim if i can't find a fresca sim around here to use, haven't flown a baron, and haven't flown with a G1000?? Best i can do is use my Microsoft Flight Sim and/or X plane to TRY to get some experience on the G1000!

The G1000 part doesn't matter, its just all digital instruments, with a flight director, its really simple honestly. The airplane is nothing like a Barron so do not think about that, from the cockpit window the outside of it looks more like an ATR when your in it, and it doesnt fly like a Barron nor is it setup like one. If you can get some time in any Fraca that might be the only useful part so you can get a feel for how touchy it is. The big thing is can you figure out a hold and fly an ILS and work in a 2 crew environment. I was so scared for the sim ride and I felt it was super easy.
Also Jepp has a video you can watch, I used that and it was great, see if you can find someone with it, if not most parts of it are on youtube.

2 tickets is enough to fail an interview? why would they interview you in the first place? Wouldn't that info by on airline apps? I have a feeling something else was the problem. Eagle cant be that picky.... not with dropping mins to 800TT

They say you are SOL when you hurt your back because the company already put out a video and several posters in crew rooms how to properly stow flight kits in and out of the flight deck! How many of us actually pay attention to it?
Just my opinion, but you should always carry all manuals in your kit, why would you go to war with only a gun and expect your partner to carry the bullets for you?

Im assuming you have a CMP/RLF line and trying to have Swaps&Drops build something below 11 days off. They cant do that, only you can through picking up OT.
