During our next three week break we aren’t assigned any official homework, however we have been advised that reading through the FOM and SOP manuals were a good idea. Also, limitations and memory items.

You aren’t expected to know anything coming into Indoc, but if you wanted to get started then all of the items you listed would be great!

My mistake, I thought the 4/16 class had already gone through the 3 day indoc and you were on the third day back, guys returning 4/23 (originally the 1/22 class) already had the 3 day initial indoc. That means the 1/22 class gains two classes of seniority this month, nice!!

It doesn’t appear that our codeshare partners have any interest in us moving too far west.

FYI, most of these replies are from guys asking silly questions to mess with you. I suspect they’re having a little fun with the fact that you’ve just started and are offering your “expertise” to the masses. All in good fun though... I know your real intent was to pass info along to others who haven’t started class yet, which is great. But you inadvertently opened the door for a little comedy at the same time 😉

If you needed the ATP/CTP class, do they fly you directly from that to Indy, or do you go home for a day or two?

Indoc is 3 days, is the third day a half day and you fly home then, or do you fly home on the 4th day?

Thanks!

You should wrap up around 4:30, leaving plenty of time to get an Uber and make a 6:00+ flight.
