Also, will SkyWest provide training materials/CBTs prior to class in order to get a head start?
Thanks in advance!
Welcome to Skywest! I choice the CRJ and I didn’t exactly make a similar transition from 135, but if I were you I would just enjoy your time off, relax, and spend it with family, etc until then and show up prepared to study the material. You won’t have time to do much else for a couple months while you are here. When you show up all material will be provided to you and you’ll get your EFB the first week of training. If you really are intent on getting ahead I would say reading part 121 regs could be helpful for the first portion and if you really want to get ahead you can get ahold of the SOPM for the ERJ and begin studying the flows. Good luck!
