I'm in the October 11th class... phew! I wasn't able to get a lot of questions answered in the short phone call but it sounds like you find out the equipment and base before class. Indoc is two weeks then you have two to three weeks off before going to aircraft-specific training, correct? Here are a few questions for anyone that may know:
1) At some point do you have a fairly concrete syllabus that lets you know when you're in training and when you have breaks (there's a wedding my wife is curious about being able to attend).
2) Roughly how long is systems? Is there a lengthy break between systems and sim? Sim and IOE?
3) When do benefits kick in? Health/travel?

Thanks a lot. I'm thrilled and flattered to be joining Delta's ranks!
