Can you pass the biggest checkride of your life after letting your skills developed in the sim atrophy for 30+ days? This place is an absolute joke. Now down to only 4-5 175 FOs per month completing training. It appears we are on track for the August class to finish up sometime in mid May. There were 2 July classes and the first one started sims in November. That’s right. 6 MONTHS to get 3 classes through sims AFTER the 4-5 month break. And they are bringing in a new class every 3 weeks. We are in a death spiral folks. 12 planes already parked due to lack of pilots. DO NOT COME HERE. It will be the biggest mistake of your professional career!
Is this just for the 175 or the 900 as well?

Training is backlogged everywhere it’s just a long time frame here. The CRJ side is still pumping along they’re not really having much issue because not a whole lot has changed there and it’s down to a science.
