Went back in time to check out my sim schedule on sked+; I think the days marked RJT are sim days, don't remember anymore.

Looks like I had 5 sim sessions in a row, 1 off, 1 sim, 1 off, 3 sim, 1 off, 1 sim.

plan on sim being 2 weeks, 10 sessions, 4 off.

I think I had around 2 days off before PT. One was enough for me, you’ll most likely want to get started right away so you can get home sooner before sims start.

I had one day off between ground and procedures training, 1 day with deadhead to sim facility, 2 off, then started sim.

Default Number of Pathway Pilots in Each Class?

How many students in recent classes have been from the pathway program? One of the big draws the programs advertises is top seniority in ground school but how does that work in a class with multiple pathway program students? If everyone has "top seniority" does any have really seniority?

Thanks and fly safe

Seniority is based
1. Cadet, by date of orientation, of two people have the same date, then sorted by #2 below
2. 4th number from the end of social. Low to high. If two people have the same 4th number then 3rd number and so on.

Mine was Ground for 2 weeks straight, then straight to procedures then straight to sims. really no days off, only 3 between Maneuvers and ILOE. Some people had time off between GV and PT. some had 2 weeks between maneuvers and ILOE. I would pick the fastest route.

Default CRJ wait time for IOE

Does anyone know the current wait time for CRJ between the end of training and IOE? Last I heard was 9-11 weeks- also planning a wedding for the time that I'm waiting...

That's accurate for today. If the FAA can assist by getting LCA's signed off faster to replace those that are leaving, maybe it'll get shorter.

If you are planning specific dates already, don't see why you couldn't talk to the IOE training coordinators and ask to be blocked during that time so you're not suddenly pulled. They certainly have enough in the barrel to keep every LCA we have busy for a long time.

Hello all. This may have been answered, but can you pick which plane to fly (CRJ or ERJ) during training, or are you assigned one? Also, I would assume FAT would be easy to get and fairly junior? Thanks in advance.
