One thing about training…it is mentally draining. Let me explain.<\/p>\n

Most of my flights are boring. This is a good thing. I fly point A to point B without any issues. If there is an issue, normally it is incredibly minor and is rectified in minutes.<\/p>\n

In the simulator it is non-stop chaos. On the takeoff roll there’s a cargo fire…reject. Run through the steps….ok great reset…you’re back at the end of the runway, cleared for takeoff. On the next takeoff right when the wheels leave the ground…engine failure. Climb out..declare an emergency…run check list….no time to dump fuel….over weight landing checklist….single engine approach to minimums……no contact..go around. Stop. Back at a 6 mile final same condition…do it again….land.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It can be confusing what state the plane is in and sometimes where you are. Rarely are you at the local (DFW in my case) airport.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Day 5.<\/p>\n

Started at the gate in LAX in a 777-300. First time in the 300 sim in training. There’s a new button…external cameras. The plane is so long, there is a concern about taxiing. The camera can only be used on the ground during taxi.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n

Max weight takeoff to London. Reject. Reset. Takeoff. Avionics failure…fixed. TCAS escape. Upset recovery, engine failure at high altitude, drift down….all in the first 30 minutes of flight.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

We then diverted back to Lax and jettisoned fuel over southern California.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Single engine auto land on 25L.<\/p>\n

Reset. My turn. Heavy takeoff….once the wheels leave the ground…engine failure. Climb out, clean up, reset.<\/p>\n

Captain does the same. Reset.<\/p>\n

Zapped up to 35000 feet and given a climb to 39000 feet. All 3 airspeed indicators go out. We revert to the charts for pitch and power. Descend and land using only charts. Break.<\/p>\n

We then did terrain (GPWS) escapes, flight control issues and more NON-ILS approaches.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I was mentally drained. This was the 5th day in a row of 4 hours in the simulator.\u00a0<\/p>\n

We passed this stage.<\/p>\n

Next up is 2 sim sessions with a Check Airman then 3 checking events. Happy to have a few days off.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I am having an easier time with training as I have done this so many times before…I know what to study and how to prepare. My first type rating was extreme stress, confusion and concern. This time around….it’s completing the task and looking forward to the end. No real stress. No real concern….just being tired of being in training.<\/p>\n

Being home so long…is odd. Not just on me…my family notices it as well. My suitcase is just sitting in the corner confused. I haven’t been to the airport in almost a month.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I’ll post about my first two trips tomorrow.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Thank you for following along. I am working on a way to get back to live videos again. They will almost certainly not be on Tiktok. I am thinking Instragram or Youtube or Twitch.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
