Our class was supposed to be all 200s, but a couple weeks in they decided to split it 900/200. People found out their bases near the end of ground school. Ground school is M-F 8-5pm or so. They will positive space you home anywhere in the country for the weekends.

Sim schedules vary. 3-5 days on followed by 1-3 days off. Sims run every day. I had a couple that ended at 11pm on Saturday or Sunday. They will positive space you home anytime you have 2+ days off in a row. The girl who schedules it is awesome too. I e-mail her like "hey can I get on XYZ flight from XXX-XXX on May X" and literally 15 minutes later you will get a response back with your flight confirmation number.
