Hey guys,

So what does initial training look like? How long am I in Denver, do I get to go home in between sessions? Say I start July 1, when should I be out of training?

You can go home every "weekend". Whenever you have two, or more, days off, you get positive-space passes home and back.

I’m closing in on two years so my memory is fuzzy, but if it’s still the same, you start Tuesday and go through Saturday. Sunday and Monday off followed by Tuesday through Friday, with Friday being your indoc/FOM test (open book) followed by the Wing Ceremony. Overall a hugely positive experience and the Wing Ceremony was totally heartfelt and memorable experience.

Yep, we cut out the sim training to save money.

Systems is 3 days or 3 months after Indoc. Depends on many factors and yes you still get paid the whole time.

For reference: two years ago, my 756 initial qual training was 25 days, spread over 37 calendar days.
