Default Training class sent home until July

Was told yesterday that the winkmeister sent everyone home until July due to not having the means to train all the new hires...any truth to this? Looks like that big vacancy everyone has been waiting for is gonna get pushed back even further, while they still Junior Man CRJ CA everyday and fly EMB RSV CA 30 hours every week.

July ?

You mean at least 4 weeks after exclusivity ends and a business plan and fleet plan would be required ?

Sounds fishy to me if true.

Before JJ spins this rumor, my sources at the training center confirm that this is not true. In fact, they are still offering the sign in bonus.
BTW Greamrieper say hi. Lol.

If it's true let me know. I'm going to quit and reapply. $5k signing bonus, one week of indoc, then 3 months training pay while sitting at home? I'm onboard!

They are back logged on sim time. FOQ have priority over newhire sim time.

I know for a fact that the March 4th newhire class was told early in the week they would be going home (after completing indoc) until July due to a lack of sim time.

Later in the week they were told a meeting was being held regarding their schedule - Dont know what came of that.
