Worried about washing out of your new airline training program? This two-part episode of "Cockpit Conversations" features insights from four seasoned instructors with diverse flight experience. They discuss the crucial first steps: assessing your readiness, the pros and cons of delaying a class date versus seniority, and preparing mentally. The panel shares common struggles pilots encounter, especially those transitioning from military or different airline types, and offers concrete advice on study methods (like chair flying and using mockups), adapting to new procedures, building effective study partnerships, and overcoming the psychological hurdle of not being 'perfect' right away. Learn why asking for help isn't a weakness and how to set yourself up for success from day one.
