Thought they just flew the Saab and the Big Lawn Dart. 200's flown by Pinnicle. Could be wrong though.

I think a better question to have answered is how long you'll sit waiting for IOE. This has been the best (and longest) vacation I've ever had.

What's the normal wait for the -200 between ground school and sim training??

I can't speak for later down the road, but currently there is no reserve time on the 200. To give an example, for Feb there are 23 bid lines (none being reserve) with 16 FO's eligible to bid. As you can see, currently we do not have enough FO's to cover all the lines.

That depends on what captain you're paired with. Your captain bids the slot...for some, they went to Montreal/Denver the Monday after training was done (actually flew positive spaced the day before). My pairing had 2 weeks off in between ground and SIM. Others had a month off.

For me, 2 weeks was plenty.
