They say 4-6 weeks but it's trending 6+ right now from the guys I know who just did it within the last 2 weeks.
Should be getting better since we only had 1 December class. Someone here said we have more check airman now though?
I just got set free today so my wait begins as a Jan 2 new hire. I'll try to keep the thread updated when I get scheduled.

Just spoke to a friend, very smart guy. Failed LOE, first bust ever. No gouge, new syllabus, FAA watching. Apparently things have been pretty disorganized form the get go. Only two groups have passed the LOE within the footprint. Many others in extra time before taking the ride. Newhire quality low. Something to think about before taking the ERJ bid, at least anytime soon.

I don't understand how you fail LOE unless you're really weak or nervous about checkrides. AQP of all things allows you leeway to make an error and come back from it so in theory I'd be a lot less nervous to take an AQP ride. One of my original hangups about going to to the 175 a couple years back was it not being AQP.

I'm sure all those folks felt the same way.

Seriously, how do you fail an aqp ride? That's like being the person who claims to be a bad test taker, oh you're bad at the part where you prove what you know? No worries, here is a second chance to get it right.. oh you're still stupid? Well, hmm. Head off to mesa
