Default Training delay

Just a heads up, folks who arrived at Indoc a couple days ago were sent home after in processing and issued a company iPad. There is a delay in training as the E170 sims are starting to get massively backed up. That class will not see he sims until 1 Jan.

Don’t panic, this is the norm for all Regionals these days. Republic was just able to hold off the delay more then others. You will still be paid and have your seniority start at your class date.

Not quite January 1 for sims for that class. Half will hit sims week before Thanksgiving, other half week after Thanksgiving.

I was scheduled for the next class in September, any idea if they will still bring the new hires in or should I work on my contingency plan?

Thank you in advance.

They must be shutting the sims down for 6 weeks, because the previous class is only scheduled in the sim through the 21st of November.

If you have a class date you are good to go IRT start of pay and seniority. Considering nobody knew the delay was going to happen until yesterday, I don’t think anybody has an idea yet for the timeline for the Sept classes. I don’t think it will be too bad though.

Thank you in advance.


What’s your contingency? Many other airlines have significantly worse delays.

I would most likely stay with my current job, Republic is my first choice, I just don't want to get stuck without a job or try and pick up short term flying work and then have to bail.

You realize that with a delay, you get paid the same as if you were in training, or on the line with MMG after 30 days right?

For guys who haven't started class, no need to panic. E170 Sims are in high demand, you've picked a company that will pay you while you wait with all of your benefits and seniority instead of delaying your date of hire like everywhere else.

Use the time to study, there are thousands of pages of training material to go through.
