The holdup was with the FAA availability as CAE did not have the ability to perform their own type issuances like FSI could, so when we swapped to CAE, we became at the mercy of the FAA availability. However, the type issue is likely solved now that we are switching back to FSI and are in the process of building our own training facility in SLC. Our E190 sim, if all goes well will be operational by April. Until then, we are using sims wherever we can get time. CAE removed our sim time for January, so we are backed up on that front once again. I believe the December class has the first 3 pilots who have never flown the Ejet and require the full type ride. What I don't know is if those pilots are going to be using FSI or FAA examiners and when FSI will be able to take over on that front, so that anybody showing up could be non-typed.

CA trained and qualified. Will fly in the right seat at FO pay rate unless operational need requires you to fly left seat and paid CA rates. Imagine it will be a few months to solely operate in the left seat as new aircraft come on property and more FOs are trained. I’m assuming CQFOs are only a short term plan to get started but we live in a different world now so your guess is as good as mine.
