Rough guesstimate is about 3k on your first, 16k on the second and 6k on your last.

I was just wondering if AW took out part of the sign on, besides the taxes that will be coming out, like Republic does if you show up with 1,400. If anyone at AW has shown up with 1,400/1,450 to training needing the 1,500 could share their experience would appreciate their input. Thanks.

But I hadn’t heard of them giving more hours of sim time to anyone just so they could meet ATP mins.
I went to the AW website and did the “hours calculator” they have. When I took the results of “time left” and added it to my TT the sum was 1,400 and that’s with 50hrs of sim already from a 142 included in the hours I gave. Just trying to figure out if AW does something similar, to Republic, in terms of reducing the sign on and if so by how much is it reduced, because someone has to pay for the additional training right? Ha. 🤷*♂️
