Thanks. Yeah it was quick. No complaints here. Can anyone tell me what I can expect that week of training?

Monday is all Ops Specs and the drug test. Tuesday is flight training in the a.m. and ground school in the early afternoon, followed by a ride along with a pilot that is online. Same on Thursday. Wednesday is flight training in the a.m. ground all afternoon and hazmat training in the evening. Friday is flight training, if you need ii, in the a.m. followed by checkrides and celebrations in the evening! Good luck. Let me know if you have any other questions....

Ugh, Hazmat. What a waste of 16 hours...

Study, Study, Study!

You'll be getting a very extensive packet in the mail, study every bit of it cover to cover. Know the PA32 white sheets and POH cold, especially if you have little/no PA time. You'll also be getting a GPS simulator program on CD, or if you want to get a head start you can download it at garmin.com . We have the GX50 in every single aircraft we fly. Spend a solid 4-5 hours with it, especially if you don't have a lot of GPS experience. A third to half of the approaches you'll do in training are GPS approaches. Go over chapter 5 of the AIM once and the section on GPS. Do not worry about Part 135, we cover the GOM (the parts of 135 we use)extensively in class. Have Fun!
