I don't know if you remember, but I had a problem understanding SIDs and STARs. Now I understande them, and know how to fly them, and they were a requirement for my 757 checkride. Now I'm ready to take the 757 checkride since I've been practicing flying it. However, I had the checkride "scheduled" months ago and don't know if my time to do it is up. So I need to know if I can do it without asking for it to be "rescheduled" or if I have to tell someone that I'm ready and to send me the info on the new checkride. And if I do have to conctact someone, whom should I?

When one of my checkrides expired, I contacted the Chief Pilot and asked to have it made available again. I believe if you go to Pilot Center and request the checkride again, it will be made available to you.

I can't click on the "Request Additional Ratings" button. Its just written in a bold black wrtiting, and its not a link of any type. I can't click on it.

E-mail either the chief or the asst. chief of the 757 program and ask him what you need to do do get in the program/rating. He can look your stats up, make sure you took/passed the written, then will be able to reassign the checkride.
Glad the SID/STARs are working for you too.
By the way, you can click on 'Our Staff' and find who those people are along with thier e-mail addresses.

If you need further assistance with the 757 contact the CP or ACP. I am also available for any questions regarding the aircraft. However I cannot help you with setting you up with a checkride. Good luck sir and look forward to seeing you in the 757!!!

Hello !!! not trying to hijack anything but I took my 757 check on the 4th, had some major dificulties with acars and sent multiple emails to Craig and my current chief and no response back frmo the 757 side. My chief, Daniel, said he would forward the message to craig though...Anyone have any other ideas how to get my checkride graded

Jay I just looked and I'm not sure why your flight didn't show up as a checkride in the submitted fight qeue. I am working to have this problem resolved, but it will take senior leadership with the access to change the flight to a checkride. Be patient but i can let you know you did pass and its just a matter of getting the technicals taken care of to get your rating added. If you have any problems please email me at dva2018@aol.com. Thanks
