delays are just the norm right now. I'm sitting at home waiting on two sim days, as are about 11 people from my class. I was told to expect another week home. people a class ahead of us are also waiting.
One of the problems is the flight safety sim went down for mx which caused a lot of scheduling issues.

Well I was just displaced for IOE for the third week in a row.... Since I hold a Monday through Thursday line, it will be hard to get an open four day trip to replace it. Open four day trips starting on a Monday or a Tuesday are rare, go figure....
So this last week I hung out at home with no reassignment.... So far it looks like I'll be doing that again this next week.
I don't know if there's a way to figure out who is bidding for the same line you are but if I could, I would probably avoid bidding with an IOE captain. I actually don't like to sit around for days on end. I wind up wasting too much time on forums....

No need to do a trip for free.

If there are any Comair guys on here that got a job with Eagle, I have a question for you. Eagle sent my verification paperwork to Comair after the interview. I called Comair to make sure they got it, they are telling me they dont do verifications. They outsource them to another company. I want to see if you ran into the same deal, and if not what number did you fax the verification to?
