Does Republic use their own instructors in the sim or is it a flight safety, L3 or whoever the company that is running the sim instructor? How are the pass rates overall?
I saw that the flat panel screen trainers are done by Republic instructors. TIA

I'm not sure on pass rates, but random numbers I have heard from different instructors indicates they are better than 90%.

That pass rate is consistent with what I've seen as well, based on class sizes and monthly resignation data collected by the union. Looks like four resigned in training (not listed as leaving to a different job) in January corresponding to a period that saw a little over 50 pilots hired.

Hi all - I have my class date coming up within the next few weeks and was wondering when we could expect to receive our badges. I hear that the badge is basically the last thing required to hop on a jumpseat and do some observing and I was wondering if that would be possible to do during the weekend during at-home ETHOS.
Thank you! I look forward to joining the pilot group.

Which is earlier than some companies give out cass/kcm. Some wait until you pass the training entirely.

Edit: ahh if the intent was to ask if we do a Skywest and only fly for 1 codeshare, that's a no.

There can be some small procedural differences between each codeshare, but for practical purposes, as pilots, there's very little difference in day to day ops.

Now I do all United out of EWR (my base) but I pick up (on rare occasion) AA trips out of PHL from trades or open time.
