There are plenty of sim instructors who are FOs, they do CTP and FTD, not sure of the schedules or pay.
They are not putting fo's in training positions any more due to the mass amounts they have lost due to them upgrading months after they were put in the training dept.

Right now on the careers page they have job openings for CRJ ground instructors and CRJ FTD/CPT. And ERJ CA and ERJ FO instructors.. ive talk to several former or current instructors and it seems a good gig if you live in base. (DEN ERJ or SLC CRJ) but you dont bid for your training schedule. Then you bid in PBS to fill in the blanks with flying..

Why spread false info? If you don't know, don't say anything

Those are FTD instructors, to be a actual sim instructor you have to be a captain. Yes usually we do "FTD" sessions in a sim but that's changing on the 175. Any Sim lesson (full motion) is a captain instructor, FTD is FO

Well,

1. maybe he believed the information he posted was correct, but it was not?

2. maybe he believed the information was correct and it was? The later poster might be incorrect.

3. maybe it was correct but changed?

4. maybe he posted it to see if he could get any stupid reactions from people looking to find flaws where they don't really exist?

5. maybe he posted it so that I would end up wasting my time writing this post?

Well,

1. I'm not sure why he believed it because it wasn't from a credible source. Anybody in the training department knows they are still looking to hire FOs on the CRJ/ERJ to do Ground, Matrix, FTD.

2. He's not correct, acmnd is.

3. It was never correct, they've been hiring FOs for a couple of years now.

4. I doubt it.

5. This is the correct option of the five.
