Anyways, i'm 5 weeks out of sims and haven't flown yet. Not complaining, because im being paid to sit at home. Not sure how anyone could see that as a bad thing. Got paid to sit in a hotel in Portsmouth for a week also on my first cycle.
How's everyone from the March class doing? Anyone actually start flying for IOE yet? I personally cant figure out any rhyme or reason as to how the FOC operates in regards to scheduling new hires for IOE, but it's all part of the process I guess!
They shouldn't let you sit in a hotel in PSM for a week. Normally the idea is to keep you close in case an IP becomes available, but there should have been a plan to pair you up within 3 days of you being there. But, like another poster said, IPs seem to be in high demand currently. If you're so inclined, opening up availability for OT could help you get on the road. Might as well make some extra cash while you're at it.
