Until released to the line or 90 days, whatever is first.

What's the typical time these days for start until released to the line? Still 8 weeks?

I'm starting in October; should I also expect breaks in training for Thanksgiving? Do they let you positive space home for breaks like that?

Positive space home? 😂

I was in training over Christmas and went home for about 36 hours, it was very stressful. The culture might be different now that the clown is no longer here. You may or may not have a few days off over Thanksgiving. I doubt you will actually train on that day but they will not positive space you home.

Don't expect to get positive spaced home. It may even hurt you if you do go home. You want to be 100% zoned in during training here. There's little to no wiggle room if you fall behind on your studies due to getting distracted by family activities.

Ok. What's the number of weeks from Day 1 to PC? 6 weeks from Day 1 to complete with IOE seems very quick.

About 8 weeks from start to PC and at least right now no wait for IOE.

If you are a OCT hire you will be close to your oral or PC by the time thanksgiving arrives so even if you get it off just stay and study. The people who hold holidays above training success have a higher failure rate.

I know people that have gone home every opportunity and have had zero trouble in training. Just work hard while your there and study on your flight home and back to FLL.
