2 days virtual Indoc on Zoom (Th/Fr) then head to Dallas that Sunday for 6 days of Indoc Mon-Sat. Challenger/Legacy crews stay for an extra day for an oceanic plotting course. Assignments are given on day 1 when you show up (they're on your name tag.) Rental cars provided and you share with 1 other person in Indoc. All meals expensed on company card. Type rating in either STL, DFW, or MCO. The guys I know that went through recently went straight from DFW to their type rating course but said a couple people in their class had up to a week off where they went home before going to type rating, but that was the exception not the rule. Company says on Zoom Indoc to prepare to be gone for a month. Said fleet assignments were divided up pretty evenly among their classes.

Yep, it is zoom based. There isn't too much "learning" that goes on. It focuses more on setting up your devices, or at least your phone if you do not have the iPad yet. You will go into detail on the company, some of the apps that are used and what to expect in training and beyond. Also use the opportunity to meet the other people in your class and put names to faces before you meet in Dallas for more continued training.
You will have breaks about every hour, and will also have a nice long lunch break.
Good luck!

It's random. I have seen guys already typed on one of the planes not get it, guys over 6ft get the phenom, ex-regional guys not get the Challenger, you name it. We asked them how they assigned fleet and they also said it was random. I doubt it actually is "random", and they just don't want to disclose why they do it.
