Thanks for the info! So would the November hire be finished with initial training yet? Was also told Endeavor's initial was something like 70-90 days... Do they complete initial FO training through IOE or transition to upgrade somewhere before FO IOE? Sorry for all the questions, this just a whole new world from when I was flying the regionals, and I'm really contemplating returning to a US airline for more PIC time. Therefore, I'm really trying to get a better picture of how these "quick upgrades" are taking place.
