I’m in Scottsdale going through my initial type rating. You nailed my emotions how I feel right now. 2nd sim was today. Was told I did ok but slow with check lists! It’s brutal and I’m trying to push through
Do Companies and airlines pay for the type rating training and provide the certificates once hired or do you need to pay for and obtain the type rating yourself before applying to these companies/airlines?
Excellent write up. I’m about to head to sim training on the cj3. I went through this at a regional and your spot on. Huge shock. Thought I was going to get training….. didn’t expect to already know everything beforehand.
Hi Alex, Thank you for this excellent information. I also got hired by the same 135 company and this information is really well appreciated. Thanks, Ernie
One thing to be aware of: Many instructors in the sim may give you something like a 45 degrees or more nose pitch up in an unusual attitude recovery maneuver, and you may get used to recovering from these excessive attitudes. However, the examiner may only give you the bare minimum of 25 to 30 degrees of nose up pitch. Thusly, you may be tricked into thinking that you are not really into an unusual attitude and, consequently, don't need to be as aggressive in your recovery technique. Remember: only one degree separates a simple nose high attitude from an OFFICIAL unusual attitude. Don't be fooled... Play the game!! If you are going to demonstrate an unusual attitude recovery technique, then anything the examiner gives you will have need of the official unusual attitude recovery technique.
Thank you so much for this video bro! I am just getting started with my ATR 72600 in CAE. The anxiety hits again hahah and its early in the morning. Its my day 1 today about MCC/CRM.
Continually proud and impressed with your progress and commitment to excellence. Siempre adelante amigo. Remember: Think and Grow Rich... in the truest sense!
going for my commercial checkride soon (just in an archer lol) but I already started watching stuff like this and CFI/CFII preparation material. I want to be fully involved invested and want to be as prepared as possible when the day comes.
Excellent advice, Alex. Before you go for training, get the material in advance and try to find a mentor! The employer is not interested in "training" you. They will expect you to know for example the electrical diagram... what happens when the # 1 alternator fails? If both the #1 and #2 alternators fail how does the APU alternator take over, what converts DC power to AC power. The training facilities should do a much better job at being specific as to what you need to know on the first day of class, but they really don't care and most of their instructors are burned out. Also try to talk to other pilots who are in front of you in training so they can brief you on what to expect. If you don't do these things, you will fail because of the way the system is set up. Study in groups if possible, remember "if you study alone, you will fail alone!"
+1 limitations down cold before going to school. And bug the training center weeks before your start date to give you the material early. They seem to think giving you access a couple days prior to start is sufficient... no way man. lol.
True to each word …. American instructor the don’t care you know or don’t know and the hate people coming straight from cessna . Everything will be very fast and hard to match the pace . The teach 10 percent and expect to perform 90 percent perfect . So very emotional 😢 Too much fast pace course And the instructors won’t like you .as the feel not paid enough .
That is a great question. I don't have the exact answer but I could assume it depends on the airlines needs or what position you applied for. And probably that comes with seniority, the longer you've been in the airline you can probably choose the aircraft you want to fly and your schedule.
I m kind of failing, my instructor said he is lying himself letting me go to ffs1, so worried, because I cannot even make perform a normal approach by ILS , cannot stable the aircraft, I am starting to think that be a pilot is not mine… upset so much….
If this is what you really want to do! Do not give up! Don’t listen and keep going if not one day you will regret it. We all struggled at some point during our flight training
@@AlexBengoecheaAlex, Does a pilot have to pay 30k annually for the type rating,as well as, attend the type rating school every year? Your channel is a total gem. 💎 and we love ❤️

Hi Alex. I’m going through everything you are describing right now. Especially with the motivational videos to keep me going haha. Great video
Thanks for the feedback! Good luck
Great video! Starting my TR on the 767 in a few months and I’m glad I now know how to get ahead!
Damn! Congratulations 🎊🎉🎈 the 76 is a nice ride
How’s it going
Thanks for the heads up.

Great video! Feel a lot better thanks to you.
VERY NICE!
Very very helpful information, thank you a lot
This is great. Thanks so much for the video definitely learned a thing or two haha.
Hey thanks for the video I’m actually in my hotel room right now I start class tomorrow morning we’ll see how it goes man I’m kinda stressed
How’d it go? I start my first type rating training in a month.
@@jimmybeatworld it went great they really helped me out and thankfully i passed now im at he westen hotel about to start a 7 day trip to mexico
@@georgelias91 Nice! Congrats
thanx for your honesty
Wow, thanks for sharing !

Exactly!
That's true. Sim instructors don't teach, they test.
Alex Bengoechea Thank you for this video.
You are welcome 🙏🏼
Very nice! I go to fsi the next month to take c550II sic type rate, its my first initial Training, its the same course and checkride?
Niceeeeee! Yes all check rides are performed to ATP standard so will do the tasks in the ATP ACS
Look so good
True to each word …. American instructor the don’t care you know or don’t know and the hate people coming straight from cessna .
Everything will be very fast and hard to match the pace .
The teach 10 percent and expect to perform 90 percent perfect .
So very emotional 😢
Too much fast pace course
And the instructors won’t like you .as the feel not paid enough .
Man this was super useful. Thank you!
My pleasure brotha 🙏🏼 thanks for watching
Kinda nervous I’ll be translating in the next month, don’t know what to expect
How does the airline determine what aircraft ypur going to get ? And if your stuck on the 737 how long before you can get something else ?
That is a great question. I don't have the exact answer but I could assume it depends on the airlines needs or what position you applied for. And probably that comes with seniority, the longer you've been in the airline you can probably choose the aircraft you want to fly and your schedule.
Hey brother i would like to get into AME . It would be nice if i can connect with you personally
I m kind of failing, my instructor said he is lying himself letting me go to ffs1, so worried, because I cannot even make perform a normal approach by ILS , cannot stable the aircraft, I am starting to think that be a pilot is not mine… upset so much….

Is this information for all flight schools?
Wonderful video, How much did it cost ?
I didn’t pay for it but I think initial type rating for a Lear 40/45 goes for 30k
@@AlexBengoecheaAlex,
Does a pilot have to pay 30k annually for the type rating,as well as, attend the type rating school every year?
Your channel is a total gem. 💎 and we love ❤️
Know as much as possible about the aircraft before attending school. You will be drinking from a firehose while you are there.
did you go for your type rating on your own or through a company?
Through a company
In other words they did not prepare you the way they should have. But they did take your money. Right.
Are you wearing makeup?
