It's currently fairly junior, but that can change quickly.

I haven't seen much activity so figured I'd post...received a call this morning for a 9 April class start date. An additional class is planned for 22 April...both for ERJ.

My interview was 28 Feb.

Can someone provide info or a link regarding the schedule of ERJ training and IOE. First question; how long should one expect to be in initial training? Second question; is your schedule during IOE as if holding a line?

Thanks in advance.

Training can be about 6-8 weeks depending on sim availability. One week indoc, 2.5 weeks of systems and 2 days of CRM. I think 5-6 FTDs, 6-7 sims, and then a PC. You'll be given days of breaks. If the break is 3 days or longer you can get positive space back home and back to training.

You'll have a short break for IOE and the timeframe is very variable. I've seen 4 days to 3 weeks. Once you're done with your PC though, you're getting paid. IOE would be like having a line yes.

Did recruiting seem confident they'd have the classes filled up? Not sure how big the pool really is.

Thanks for the reply. It's a huge help.

I was told they have the class on the 9th and another on the 22nd for the ERJ. I have received an email stating that they will continue to screen applicants for classes...I take that to mean that it may not be 'first come, first serve' regarding class offerings.

I don't know the expected class capacities, but they seemed to be interviewing quite regularly during my timeframe, and I was told they are currently giving priority to ATP holders or those with the mins.

Thanks again!

I need to get in ASAP. Already done the ERJ training, I'd like to bring my experience over to the positive side of the airline world...

United increased block hours on the erj for the summer. Clueless email from management placing blame for our understaffed condition in 3,2,1

Well, they HAVE too. My class date was Apr 9th last year and I got online early in July. That would give someone about a month online to get to the ATP mins and get the ATP. Obviously that wouldn't work, they have to go into training with the required time.

In training on the ERJ side do you get paid the guarantee or is different according to the contract?
