Training Timeline
Need some info from guys who've recently completed initial training or who are in "the know"
I'm an FO currently on mil leave (deployed) and am looking to come back to RAH around March. I will be on a new aircraft (former Q driver) and I have been gone long enough that I need the full up indoc all over again. I saw an email from HR saying the sim takes 10-12 weeks?!?! That's on top of the 8-10 days in IND for indoc and another week of systems. I don't remember this being the case. Can someone confirm this? Where is the sim for the 170? Do they send you home during gaps in training? I'm just concerned my wife will chop my balls off if I come home from several months deployed just to up and leave again for 12-14 weeks.
Thanks,
JM311

They provided positive space for some of the gaps in training for current employees. As a new hire, I didn't get positive space so I'm not certain which gaps met the criteria and which didn't. Most current employees would jumpseat home for anything two days off or more anyway.

They ran four classes in November. I believe all the classes started on a Tuesday except those classes which were moved around for the Thanksgiving holiday. Indoc was ten days in Indy.

Most of the training in Indy focused on SOP type stuff (about ten days). All the the systems and sim training is in STL.

Hotels provided during training at IND and STL have small kitchen built in to cook dinner and prep lunch? Or are there places to buy lunch near by the training center?
Also from reading previous replies, Systems/FMS are in STL flight safety. Is it taught by RAH instructors or Flight Safety Instructors?
Around how long does it take to get your badge and be cleared to jump seat?
Cheers!
