Republic training

Sorry I hit the wrong button.
Out of my class 4 FO of the 15 got DEN the rest when to DCA or PIT.

Are they not filling indy anymore or just no one put in a bid for it?

What he said, I want either indy, cincy, or louisville...What are those odds?

 

[it'sjustme]

I know of a few that put their bid in for IND, but no one got IND.

Well poopy......How long if you bid indy you think it will take to get based there??

 

[it'sjustme]

They are saying a couple of months. The class before mine had a few to get IND so who knows.

Those 4 that got DEN did they bid for it or were they forced to go there?

Just spoke with a friend in that class. They bid it. DEN is hurting for pilots. If you want DEN, then go to Republic, if you don't get it at first, it will happen really soon as the base grows. The four that went to DEN live in TUL, PHX, SLC, LAX I believe. Can anyone confirm?

 

[it'sjustme]

That is correct I know of one more that wanted DEN but he got PIT. I think he was from DEN area.

INDOC is 10 days in indy, and then you will go to FSI in either St. Louis or Houston

 

[jspilot]

Thanks for the info!

Is that also the case for the 145? 10 days indoc in indy matches what I've been told, but I was told that systems will definitely be in STL, followed by the sim in either St. Louis or Houston. Have I been misinformed?

I was told it could be either or, o well

 

[racers2207]

Systems can be in either St. Louis or Houston.

 

[Boris Badenov]

I dont' suppose that there's any hope that they'll send someone who lives in St. Louis to St. Louis...?

Hey, don't you go applying logic to the situation. Remember what industry you're working in.

 

[Boris Badenov]

Yes, sorry sir. May I have another?

 

[liz289101]

Actually, Indoc is being held in St. Louis now too.

 

[Boris Badenov]

Well, that figures. I'll go to indy for indoc and get houston for systems and sim. This is great, I haven't even been to training yet and I'm already disgruntled.

Relax, its not so bad. So far I've moved from one city to another and in a week, I'm going to one more. I try to go home every weekend while I've been training and its been a breeze. Even though we aren't in CASS yet, a little friendly attitude will take you a long way with jumpseating. If you are a braggart or a know it all about your new little shiny jet, you are going to have a hard time in training. Our program is behind on the IOE thing for sure but as long as I'm getting paid, I'm just fine with a little delay. The folks who complain about the delay in IOE are typically the 20 somethings who haven't worked too hard in their previous lives.

I welcome a paid vacation. The training so far in regards to systems in the CRj has been a little sub par but that should improve with each new class.
