Yup. I seem to remember it was longer and definitely more in depth the first time I went through.

I know Indoc isn't aircraft specific....just wondering if they had a condensed version for previous 121 guys. 5 days isn't a lot of time for guys with no 121 time. Talk about drinking from the fire hose.

It's manageable if you don't have prior 121 experience, but the same for everyone. Truthfully, it's the systems you need to study your butt off for. That's the real fire hose. But again, pretty much everyone makes it through ground school. Just don't goof off every night.

What I meant was Indoc is the same for everyone regardless of experience or aircraft assignment. In fact, the EJET guys and CRJ guys are in the same class for Indoc.

Do you need to have an ipad for first day of training or just first day of ioe? Also, about how much space does the jepp program and company manual take up? Just trying to decide what size to get. Thanks!

You need it fully operational by sim. Be aware that means conversing with the EFB administrator, doing some online training and then waiting for your subscription link to be emailed to you. All of the above can take a week or two, so it is not wise to leave it until the last minute. You will not be allowed to start sim training without it.

The Jepp app takes up about 1.3GB. Company manuals are about 50MB.

I think the most junior captain is a April 2013 hire, or thereabouts.
