Started class in September, had the checkride first week of November. I will be shocked if I get a call for IOE before the new year. I have a friend who started class the first week of August and he still hasn't heard anything.

Does skywest give you single occupancy rooms for sims or is it double occupancy the whole way?

I enjoyed it for three weeks. Now I'm ready to fly before I forget everything.

I was at the bottom of my class in seniority and finished IOE recently, took me 6 weeks to get scheduled.

Wow! During that down time were you getting paid with the training 65 hours or the regular 76 hours per month? My understanding was 76 hours after completion of the ground school and sims.
