I don’t doubt that, however I’m trying to make the point that if I’m not waiting on an RQ event, I’m DNF on a closed BES and likely one displacement to go before I’m settled in a BES why would I expect to see training anytime soon? I’m genuinely asking as I’m sure there is something I’m missing. But from my seat with little forward viability, I don’t see why they’d risk assigning me training within the next month or 2 when I’m in serious limbo.

In all fairness the training "process" is very much a moving target, and will likely be one step forward and two steps back until the next 2 Displacement rounds are completed. The company won't even know the names and planes part of the training plan until the end of the year at best.

“Training plan”

Which course gets filled first?
initial qual?
requal?
cq?
landings?

And on what timeline?

What if anything’s gets left for real time (besides sick calls?

I’d like to know how far out some of these events are scheduled. As an example, will a 756 or 777 pilot from a closed base who needs something like an RQ3 for another aircraft be towards the end of the line, or somewhere else? Being that they are pay protected, there isn’t really a cost savings element to training them in any order. Any TK people know how far out they fill the schedule for RQ 2 or 3 training events?

usually a month out.

DEC pilot skeds will be awarded then they will build January so they can open PI bids and allow pilots to bid for CQ.

Some January slots are being allocated. Look in Reports —> Absences.

I have a January “training” assigned.

Should that be considered a firm date, or is it only an actual assignment when it shows up under the my training schedule tab or when you get a CCS notification? Procrastinating minds want to know.

No idea. I’d assume it to be soft until it shows up under trading schedule.

Email I got from training department said that he would be publishing my training date in early January sometime soon as a few things needed to be scheduled up. So it’s in absences, not published but being worked on.
