How long is the break between indoc and sims? ( Does this depend on sim availability?)

Time from sim completion to ioe?
Thanks so much!
The week before Indoc you should get your bid sheet, and I believe you get the results NLT Friday before indoc report.
Indoc starts on a Tuesday, and ends the next Wednesday after your wing ceremony at around 1930. You can leave that night if you want. Hotel is booked Monday-following Thursday.
The break before sims is a minimum of 10 days I think. Some people went in less than two weeks and others went at around four weeks. It just depends on fleet and how busy they are.
training footprint is around 4 five-block days. 20 training events.
Some people had IOE scheduled during training with a break of 48 hours or so after their LOE/44X. Others have been waiting a couple weeks. Again, depends on fleet and how busy they are. 7ER pilots will finish OE, get off training pay, and then wait around 60 days for TOE.
Good luck!
