I had my checkride on March 31st and my airplane ride on the April 4th. On April 16th I was in Dallas for 700 Sim and that is my month. I talk to our IOE coordinator twice a week and so far she seems to think it’ll be the beginning of May before I get my first trip. By then it will have been 5+ weeks. They said that being 700 qualified would speed up IOE, "BS!"

When I was originally hired a year ago on the bro, I started my first IOE trip less than 4 days after my airplane ride and completed IOE in less than 10 days.

Expect to wait 4+ weeks, after 4 weeks make sure you’re available to accept your first trip. They’ve been having problems with pilots leaving on vacation and unable to accept trips.
