Re Sim on assessment going into logbook, I stuck it mind without a second thought. Doesn't count for much which is why I wasn't worried, but why not. You're in there with a TRE, or some kind of sim instructor after all

Good luck!

Been waiting 6 months, not holding out much hope as things seem to have slowed quite a lot. 737 deliveries finish this year and I think they have the majority of their aircraft online and crewed. According to Oxford they have placed 30 odd guys this year and I'm betting the waiting list at CAE is every ab initio cadet since the 2011 hiring spree Irritatingly there is no one to call to find cold hard facts on how many are waiting and how many are needed!

I have a question those who already went to the interview. Did you do 737 SIM prior to the assessment? If the answer is no, did you find difficult to fly the aircraft?

I came from a A320 MCC, so I'm worried about my performance if I had to go to a 737 SIM assessment.

Skyblue having done an MCC on a 320 sim also prior to my RYR interview I would say definitely do some sim time on a non fly by wire jet. They handle completely different and have different concepts.
I used a classic 737 sim for my interview prep. Even if u just use flight sim get the 737-800 package for it. When you don't have experience they are very different in my opinion.

Any feedback on what City or Jet wrote?
Is it normal now to wait 6 months before an answer?
Thanks

A number of people I know have been waiting for a few months with no reply. Others have heard back within a week. It is all a bit of a lottery by the looks of it

I waited 1 and a half years from the application to CAE until being invited to the assessment. Total time from the application to starting the type rating was 2 years!

Thanks

Yesterday I received an email from CAE asking for my CV. I haven't flown since September, so right know I cannot send my CV because I need one flight in the last 6 months. I will try to make a flight in the next days, but I want to know how much time more or less is aceptable to send back my CV.

Did any of you have the same problem when received the email? Thanks!
