The first week was spent in groundschool at the Nursling training centre where we had 2 days technical training for the Boeing 737-300 aircraft and the remaining 3 days were spent on Crew Resource Management where we learnt the skills needed for multi-crew operations.

During the rest of the week when we weren't in the training centre, we have been learning and memorising all the checks and order of proceedings which has taken a very long,long, long time. We now have 9 simulator sessions, each 4 hours long, in the 737-300 to hone our multi-crew and jet aircraft handling skills.
Lots of stuff to learn.... |
