What exactly does the code MMC mean on my schedule? It’s on every single day of the month on my January schedule. In the notes it says:

”MMC to be used by crew res to make a pilots line avl for MVUP”

Is there somewhere we can look up all these codes? I am currently waiting for TOE.

MMC is mid-month conversion. You are done training on your new plane but not converted till the next month so your schedule is "frozen" with the exception of OE. You can't pick up trips in your "old" category and you can't pick up trips in your new category - basically in a PCS purgatory. 😁

The other problem is that you are facing another jeopardy sim after a loooooong time away from IQ in an airplane you've never flown before. The short requal course seems designed for someone with previous experience in the actual airplane, NOT someone who has never consolidated.

For those of you that went NQ, have you heard anything from the company? I went NQ on 12/25 and haven’t heard from the company aside from a generic auto email. Does anyone know If 330 training is still really backed up?
