Weekends aren't necessarily off in the sim. It just depends on how they schedule it.

Hello all, a few questions. Looks like new hire training consists of around 6 weeks in Dayton and 2 weeks of SIMs in CLT. Are weekends off during training? Which hotel do new hires stay at in Dayton? When would a November class date start approximately? And lastly, what would going through training during the holidays look like (i.e. Thanksgiving Day off, Christmas)?

You're not guaranteed to have weekends off in the sim. Thanksgiving day, Christmas day, and New Years day are the only guaranteed days off because the training center is closed. Sims are usually lessons 1-4 consecutively, one or two days off, lessons 5-8 consecutively, one or two days off, check ride, qualification loft. Sim 9 and 10 are available if needing extra training, but are guaranteed if you need them. 11 and 12 are a case by case basis. It is extremely rare to go more than 12 sim sessions before a check ride.

New hires "could" be scheduled on these days, but there are no instructors working so that might make things difficult.

Regular classes likely won't take place on those days, but IPT's and sims...maybe.

In anyone is coming to any of the WO, be sure to find someone to refer you before you apply. Find someone that isn't a scum bag and will share the additional $5k with you.
If you figure that $2k will go to taxes, you can each take home $1500.
That would make first year pay $60,000.
(Note: I do not give referrals, but there are some good guys on here that will).
