Dont know exactly think it might be the wet training and admin type stuff. Brookfield told me not to worry about half the forms for the BAA airside pass as they will be going through it with us in EMA. But im not sure what the story is?

For those wondering what happens at EMA.
Just finished and basically first day was admin, recieving training files etc.
Then this is all followed by 2 days of CRM and 3 days of SEP. The SEp days included secuirty,safety etc with trip to the pool for a few lengths. Also a go on the cabin trainer with escape slide and overwing exit, aswell as this at some god forsaken hour an aircraft visit to have a nosey round and open/close the doors. Finally also included a quick blast in the fire simulator donning personal breathing equipment and putting fires out.
Regards

Please, any feedback about the SAA?
How is the Ryanair assesment? and the MCC?
Among CAE, SAA makes this short of assesments for Ryan SSTR cadets.
Is there a pilot pool after the complection of the process?
Because on Ryanair´s webpage, says this:
(is there a difference between copilots and cadets?)
Pilot Recruitment Update - CO - PILOTS
Our First Officer training courses for 2006 are now fully subscribed. Our next First Officer training courses will commence in April 2007. We are currently inviting applications from 737 type rated First Officers looking to commence training courses from April 2007 onwards.
We have just 25 places left on courses for Captains this year. If you are interested in applying as a Captain please forward your CV to Applications are dealt with on a first come, first served basis. Type rating on the 737-800 is a decided advantage.Courses for cadets will commence in January 2007 at Ryanair approved schools. Applications should be made directly to the schools.
thanks in advance, and good luck!!!

Hey everybody
I have a question (of course
)
Recently I have been contacted bij CAE to do the assesment for ryanair. First I've got a day in Amsterdam for ATPL theory questions (MC) and an English test (multiple choice) and the day after a Sim grading on the Boeing 737-300 at CAE Brussel.
My question is, does anybody have an idea what to expect from the ATPL questions and the 733 ride? A lot of my school mates (CAE/NLS) also got invitations but for januari, they will recieve the technical assesment and the ride on the 732. So my way is a bit different. Anybody out there with experience concerning the ATPL and 733?
Thanks a lot!

Hi Guys and Girl
i have been spending time practising CLN 2B , and just have a question with regard to the plate at Luton.
Published Inbound NDB DME Track is 257degrees,
Everytime I track 257 on FS the Runway appears to my right when reaching MDA. For the people who have completed the assessment at EMA, did you find the same situation.
The magnetic track from the NDB to the runway on FS is actually 259...
tracking the 257 inbound on the East Midlands Sim, will this produce a similar result....
cheers

High Low,
When i did it in the sim - the runway appeared at 12 o'clock!!
I was pretty chuffed with that.
Perhaps FS2k4 isnt as accurate as the real thing - i wouldnt imagine that the sim at EMA is based on FS2k4!

Hi Piloto2006,
Scroll back a few pages, alot of your questions have been covered. Below is a post I made in response to someone else asking a similar question. They will give you all the power settings on the day, but the main one you need is about 1.25 EPR for level flight 230kts and about 4 degrees nose up attitude. Lots of guys go to Parc or rather Sim Tech in Dublin and use the sim there, i used Real aviation in Yorkshire http://www.realsimulation.co.uk/
Hope it helps.

Hi Embraer 195 & others,
I did the assessment at the end of Sept. The profile was the CLN 6B out of Luton on RWY 26. Establish onto the VOR at 4,000ft. Some general handling nothing too complicated. I got smoke in the toilet my sim partner got pax with a heart attack. Don't get to hung up on the check lists, what they are looking for is good comms between the PF & PNF and with the crew. NITS brief etc.... Remember to squawk 7700 etc.... and radio calls. Back into land on an NDB. I had no single engine stuff but did have to fly the hold and an entry. I know others who didn't. Just be prepared for doing it. If you're not familiar with the 737 get yourself in a sim. The sim at East Mids has an MCP like like you get on a 737-300, it will really help if you're familiar with this for the PNF role, as they look at your performance in both roles.
With regards to tech questions, these were based around aircraft flown: Seneca etc... And some basic stuff on NDB's and a couple of Met questions.
The instructors were all really friendly and relaxed, and I can honestly say I actually quite enjoyed it, better than being sat at home anyway!!
Good luck

Hi Piloto,
You can also find a 737-200 simulator in Belgium @ Brussels
Have a look at www.sfa.be and ask them.

Change of SID
Hi all,
I had the assessment the 8th of Dec. Before I went I checked PPRuNe all time for the latest info.
Since it had been a great help for me, I want to continue the tradition. I must say that the posts here reflex pretty much what is done in EMA so nothing to add on that really.
The SID was different tough. It was a Compton 3B (CPT 3B). It starts the same as the CLN 6B. The climb was to 5000' and as a PNF I got a pax with a hardattack. As a PF I got bagage wich was not ok, so had to turn back to Luton. The approach was the same: to LUT, entry and then get established for the NDB/DME rwy 26.
Fortunatily it was good enough and I passed the assessment. I can start the course the 19th of Feb.
I you have a Q about it, I'll be happy to try and answer them.
Good luck for those that are awaiting and congrets for those who already made it.

Parc Aviation Dublin
Piloto2006,
http://www.parcaviation.aero/
They have a 737-200 sim, contact them and they will give you a contact of someone at Sim Tech, who will sort you out. One word of warning, they will probably tell you that you need 4hrs etc... I personally think this is a little over kill at 250Euro's an hour. couple of hours should be sufficent unless yo are really struggling.
Also check your PM.
