Make sure there is no space at all between the command bar and the chevron. I had just a little space between them and I was off about a dot on the ILS. I ask the sim guy why and he said "you have to tuck the chevron up into the FD command bar. As far as power settings, just ask.
Upon entering a hold I had to do a teardrop. When it came time to turn inbound I knew I had to turn left but the command bars were telling me to turn right. I turned left anyway and realized I didn't change my course to the inbound course. I still had it on the reciprocal. I recognized my mistake and ask the sim guy to set my inbound course. He did (he seemed to give a sigh of relief) and everything went fine.

2 questions:
Does DFW have a displaced threshold?
Also- if you forget to set ypur altimeter, and dscend from 290 to 11000, how far off will it be and why?
Thanks fellas

You're first question can be answered by referencing the DFW airport diagram. The second question should come from your head.

This is supposed to be a professional forum, filled with professional pilots.
It's disgusting to me how many can't form coherent/grammatically correct posts, or god forbid RESEARCH THEIR POTENTIAL EMPLOYER EVEN A LITTLE BIT, but still want to be treated/compensated/respected the same way as doctors and lawyers?
I'm not talking about perfection here, but honestly how long does it take to proofread your *******? Would you send a cover letter into an employer that looked like that?

Did anyone have a problem getting a 5 year driving record from their state? Ohio says I can only get a 3 year record, even if I sent a letter and/or showed up in person at the main BMV in Columbus. I'm not sure what to do next? I don't want to bug Vicky about it, but I don't want to show up with (God forbid) incorrect paperwork! Lol

Frankly, if a potential applicant can't even form a coherent sentence... you have every reason to be a jerk.

I chose not to capitalize god, since I don't believe "he" is a proper noun. It's intentional, I assure you.
I work for Eagle
