[QUOTE=jet gladiator;3277687]Can someone give me insight on the training timeline? I have been told it is 10 days and then 21 days. Is there a break between? How long? Where is each part of training held? FLL? DFW?
Do the insurance benefits truly start on the 1st day?

Thanks![

.1: 11 days total for INDOC at FXE including travel days on each end.
2: Approximately 3 weeks for flight training at CAE DFW West
3: Time off between INDOC and CAE. depends on the schedule. Last group had about 2 weeks between, but it all depends on when we can get a initial scheduled. I think a week is normal but it might be less might be more

INDOC takes place in FXE, not FLL..

insurance benefits start Day 1.

Hope that helps

How much flight time do you log annually on average? Are there a fair amount of upgrades starting to happen again?

Shrsail

it varies obviously but I would say the range for the 1-4 yr folks that number is between 600-750ish.

CA classes are running concurrently with new hire classes so yes that cycle is definitely picking up throughout the end of the year due to expansion and attrition.

In one year starting with IOE, I logged 536.2 hours, and that was during COVID.

Apologies if this has already been asked. How do you pack for a 15 day tour? Is there a size limit on your bag? I would assume due to the type of operation the schedule is constantly changing, so that would most likely not allow for dry cleaning on the road?
