To put things in perspective it takes about 3 or 4 weeks of class to learn systems. It takes about 3 or 4 hours of studying each day after class is over. It takes many hours in a cockpit procedure trainer learning checklists and panel flows, then 4 hours in the sim to put it all together. 1-2 hour checkride in the sim with a 2-3 hour oral exam. 1 hour LOFT (Line Oriented Fligth Training) in the sim. 3 TO and landings in the aircraft with a checkairman. Then they release you for IOE (Initial Operating Experience) for 25 hours of flying the line with a checkairman. Then after all that is satisfactorly completed you can go fly the line as a biddding crewmember. And then it takes about 4mo of flying to really get comfortable with the plane. Then for captains every 6mo an FO's every year you go back to the sim for another checkride.

To miss all that training and expect to be able to fly the plane profficiently won't happen. My last company had a 2 week sched. We were on fro 2 weeks and off for 2 weeks and even after being off for two weeks it took one or two fligths to get back into the rythm.

I have a TOLD card and some performance charts I could send you that willmake the flying easier.
