Starting in July of this year all airbus new hires were to be trained exclusively on EPIC. The fleet manager came into class today and half of the new hire bus drivers will be trained on Classic due to sim availability. Still maintains the entire fleet will be converted by the end of peak.

If I were king of the airline, I would prioritize captain training because it buys more flexibility. However, I think our management is sensitive to how Atlanta might perceive large numbers of new hires sitting at home for several months waiting for training. Stepping over dollars for pennies.

This discussion is a bit comical. Most Captains I’ve flown with are a bit jealous they can’t bid IRO. Since when is it bad or is it something that deserves extra pay? Captain pay for IRO is a pretty good deal if you ask me, and one many were upset went away years ago.

Sounds like extra vacation at MMG while you wait to get scheduled in the sim to me. But I don’t work here (maybe someday) and I get that’s not everyone’s cup of tea.
