There are 3-4 Qual course that need 3-5 sims to finish and a half dozen diff courses as well that need a few more sims to finish. Also it appears atleast for May and June one 4 hour slot a day in every single sim will be blocked for disinfecting.
bottom line is we will need to rob Peter to pay Paul if displacement training needs to start. Before Oct 1
In all fairness not every fleet is as heavily scheduled as the 787 but there certainly isn’t any sims sitting Idle either. Also keep in mind that a lot of 737 instructors fall in the furlough range......that certainly won’t help with training loads either.
do we really need to keep people on a SRL current? I’m sure that they could just give us a warmup and a MV in a few months. I’d rather do that than have to go to Denver every 90 days for 30 minutes in the seat.
