ATP 170/190 PIC type...

Congrats! Do they have you do the type from the left seat as an FO?
No, it is done from the right seat, the things that are different from an SIC ride:
-taxi using pedals
-no flap landing
-single engine go around
-aborted takeoff with captain incapacitation
-(and the big one) you make all command decisions

You didn't have to do no flaps on your initial?

it's a box checking event, it's not required on an SIC ride, if you did one, it's because your check airmen wanted to do one.

(unlike colgan where it was a stuck flap failure [out of zero position], either way it was different)
 
Ah, ok. I was at the Best Western. Checkride was the 8th, also in KSTL... My sim session was 11pm to 5am...

my initial was that time slot.

for the ATP ride, we got one practice sim (which was more of another box checking event) then the checkride. I was luck with 11am-3pm slot
