I was told by the nice lady at the recruitment event that I attended and interviewed at, and by someone on this forum, that the ATP- CTP course was paid for ( which is true ) but I was also led to believe that I would be paid during this time frame. I was led to believe that I would be paid from the recruitment department, and from some of *your* responses on this forum. However, when I asked the guy in charge of my ATP-CTP course he informed me that I would be paid starting my ground school in indoc. If that is the case, I screwed up royally in quitting my part 91 job. I am just trying to plan put some things finically for my family, not trying to make waves. Anybody have any input? Thank you.

Math? We continue to grow the ERJ fleet. It really isn't that hard to figure out. Yes, senior guys continue to transition over, but you will reach a point when the majority of those guys have already made the jump. We also have more and more guys who thought they were lifers make the jump to the legacies. The ERJ upgrade actually dropped below the CRJ for a short time a year or so ago. It's really a simple numbers game.

I doubt its math, If we don't sign more 175 contracts soon I think you are wrong.

the reason it dropped below the CRJ a year ago was because we didn't have the Delta contract yet and you would of had to go to ORD to upgrade on the 175.

unless something has changed very recently you will be paid in CTP. There might be a decent chance whomever was in charge of you CTP course could of been mistaken.

Nope you aren't paid in CTP. You get your first paycheck after the first payroll period AFTER you begin ground. You'll be back logged for the hours.

Here's how my situation worked.

CTP Dec 7th
Ground Jan 2nd
Paycheck after Jan 15 payroll period with a total of like 88 hours or something. Didn't get my paycheck until Jan 20th...but I did have a long break from CTP to ground.

I know it was the same for a few classes ahead of me as well. Not sure why...I just assumed it was so people didn't get the CTP certificate then leave with a nice small check.
