Some people get a month, others get a weekend. Don’t anticipate getting a month off to study flows.

Agreed. My classes range from systems to CPT was 3-7 days. CPT to SIMs 2-4 days. Plan on using the 4 weeks of ground school in ATW for studying the above mentioned stuff.

My class started in August and had 6 weeks off from systems to CPT, but that number has steadily been decreasing. I’d be done with systems and close to ready to go with flows / etc.

My class is one of the largest of record, at 19 and, we are at 4-5 weeks from sustems to CPT. Flows, profiles and call outs are the biggest items for study after systems. Plus review systems.
What other airlines cover in the sim, we are expected to be performing adequately in CPT before entering the sims.
A higher level of knowledge is expected here.
