If they are still doing the at-home systems study: 2 weeks INDOC, home for 2 week self study, then back to the training center for procedure training, flat panel training, sims. Procedure training was 5 days straight. Flat panel & sims can be a mix of multiple days straight or broken up with 1-3 days between. If it’s been 30 days and you wanna try to non-rev, you can, but in this climate I would advise against it. Flights are full and you could very well be stuck, unable to get back. That is not a conversation you want to have (in my opinion).

FYI, Non-Rev benefits do not activate until 30 days on property (if I remember correctly) and your CASS approval (ability to jumpseat in the flight deck) will not be active until after you pass your LOE (checkride).
