I could be off center on that though.
I'm assuming that there are CBTs that need to be completed prior to class start. Is it realistic to knock these out in a week?
Newhires are given four days between indoc and the rest of class to do the systems CBT's. At least, that's how the CRJ side does it.
Where are you commuting from? The amount of time you waste waiting for an ERJ slot to open up could make or break your experience, since you can take the CRJ, fly a ton, and transition over to the ERJ retaining relative seniority. We're hiring something like 100 a month, six months of waiting for the underwing engine variety may mean you'll never even hold your desired domicile unless that happens to be LGA.
