My story goes something like this. I interviewed in early April and was offered employment later that month. Ground school and my official hire date was July 2. Completed ground school at the end of July and was given the month of August off. Went to sims in DEN in the beginning of Sept. Got through it all including oral and loft. Was ready to take my PC on 9/18, the day I was sent home because there were no APD's available to give it. After coming home I was told I'd be back out there a week later to finish up but that trip was subsequently cancelled. TWO MONTHS later on Nov 16th, I returned to DEN and re-did my oral (becuase its only good for 60 days) and was given only 2 warm ups before my scheduled PC. Well two wasn't enough after being off for two months so I was able to get a 3rd and just passed it the other day on the 29th. Such is the -900 training program at XJ that many pilots have gone through. Some were out of it longer than me. Where are you at right now?
