You will be in groundschool for just under a month on the 50 seater.. every RJ pilot learns that first and gets checked out on it first(IOE). AFTER you take the groundschool final systems test on the 50 comes 2 days of 70 differences training. Then at some future point when you hold a 70 line, or as a reservist when they want you to, you come back for 2 days of 70 sim and a 2 leg line check on the 70 flying. You can fly United and Delta flying in the same trip.. almost always on different days though. You can pick up flying in other domiciles on your days off, but you are responsible to get yourself there and back. Just got word the other day that the 900 training will be a homestudy CD-rom.. guessing there will be a 2 leg line check on that one too. The other negative thing is that we don't have a union/contract so the policy manual changes frequently.. as does the interpretation of it..usually to our detriment. The positive side is that even with the moving target policy manual we still have it better than most.
