Since all newhires will be going to the 190, and there are only 2 sims, I’m guessing there will be a few small breaks as they sort through the mess they’ve created. The standard schedule is not built with breaks though. In a perfect world you’d be there for 5 maybe 6 weeks with some 1-2-3 day breaks between/in the middle of phases. I’ve seen some classes have a month break at various points (like when there was a class of 29 E190 guys), some with 2 weeks, etc.

They dump ALL new hires into the 190 and it's two sims. They start running classes much bigger than those two sims/IOE instructors etc can handle. There are large breaks (month long plus) due to the training backlog. When do new hires come off of training pay? If there is a backlog, is there any contract protection? For example, no fault of the pilot's, five months and not finished with IOE, etc.
TIA.

Let's play a bad case scenario out...
