Training is paid, $50/day for each day you are there. In Memphis we had 1 week of indoc, 3.5 weeks of systems, 2 days for our class to do the pc oral and 2 days dedicated to crm. Sim was almost exactly 2 weeks. Not sure where the Q sims are but the Saab is Houston or St. Louis.

IAH Q is senior, I've flown with senior Saab Capts who would be reserve Captains down there. Going to be pretty senior on the FO side i believe. Id have to look at the list again but its a popular plane in a more popular base than EWR.

You pay for your uniform, it will be deducted from your paychecks. It unfortunately, isn't cheap.
