hello,

well my experience with the citiexpress simcheck was quite positive. I did not pass it though, but that had more to do with me!
The examiner was a nice retired citiexpress captain from the isle of man who gave me a thorough briefing before the sim ride.

Easy SID out of EGCC (I think RWY 26?), then ask for the ATIS, give him an approach brief and then into the hold with either 210kts or 170kts flap 13(?). After that RV ILS. Sounds pretty easy, but as you can see you can still f*** it up.
Oh yeah and you can also use the flight director!

Go and practice one or two hours in a non-glass cockpit jet sim and you should be fine.
