- - 737 Hand Flying (https://www.pprune.org/interviews-jobs-sponsorship/602045-737-hand-flying.html)

Just finished all licences, how do I keep upto speed on the hand flying etc in a SIM, whats the best way so I dont get too rusty. One chap said keep away from flight sims etc as u need the muscle memory from some fixed SIM stuff I did, any help appreciated. As prob take a long time to get a job, will be well rusty!

I just practiced for procedures with FSX with PMDG 737.

When I had Assessment I went in few hours in actual Fixed Based Simulator 737 to handle the buttons and do as much as possible with checklists.

I had sim assessment not long ago, and raw data flying went pretty well, due to regular practice.

Further, try to find a sim company and try to get a job there as stand in partner for people who need sim partner for assessment prep or LPC.

Myself I also work in Sim company with 737, where I also practice so now and then some hours.

All Raw Data. No FD's, NO Auto Throttle etc.
