I have a few questions abut the way asa does training.
How are the accomidations? Are they double or single and at what hotel?
Is the company Indoc class a hard class? Is the test openbook or from memory?
Same with systems? How indepth do you need to know the systems for the oral?
What kind of questions do you get asked in the oral? Can they ask you about other stuff not covered in the 2 groundschools?


Thanks for the help.

ASA Training

ASA training is very professional. You will stay at the Redroof Inn across from ASA General Office (GO). Single room, no sharing. Basic indoc is pretty cut and dry. Aircraft training is in depth and they will teach you everything you need to know. It's not easy, but it's not super difficult. If you study and put forth an effort, you will succeed. Good Luck and welcome to the world of seniority.

Thanks, I'm looking forward to it.

Exactly right. Good attitude is as much a part of completing the program, as is study.
 
A few more things:

No "tude" while in training. Shut up. Just learn. If there's something you don't like about the training or accomidations, feel free to speak up as a recently minted FO. By the way, the training is VERY good.

The pay and accomidations are not conractual, merely the company's way of attracting good pilots, leftover from a more competitive hiring market.

Don't park a nice car at the Red Roof Inn and be careful. It is a HIGH crime area. Don't be stupid. Oh yeah, don't touch the bedspread, telephone, or remote.

I agree with others, dont park a nice car at the red roof and be careful walking around the area at night. If you are going to the jet, the oral comes from the questions in the crj study guide they give you. You can answer them yourself, do them in group study, or purchase one of the ones other pilots have already answered typed and bound. Generally, if you can answer ALL the questions in the guide you will do fine on the oral.

Good luck

The pay is contractual by a letter of agreement, and the hotel may be a part of that agreement too, I have not read it in a while.
