For a troll he makes some good points. It will be interesting to see how much of the backlog we can push through once they can get a majority of the checkairman out of stl and onto the line doing IOE. Sounds like most if the 8 new instructors are finished with their training, and the last couple of them scheduled to finish real soon.....that should at least start making a dent in the backlog, but I agree that they probably need to put a hold on deliveries, and class or two to catch up. I doubt united would be too keen on this idea though.

I heard directly from the chief pilot they are hiring off property sim instructors. The chief pilot was confident that once our current ground instructors are doing IOE the backlog should be eliminated.in the meantime, everyone should take off their tinfoil hats and go outside.

The guys currently in indoc are the ones I was taking about. They most all got the jet and several got jet captain right away. I'm gonna get in soon, before this gravy train leaves the station!!

Not true, nobody in the current indoc class "got jet captain". You say you are "gonna get in soon" but you post information as if you already work here. Either way, please don't provide incorrect info. It does not help anyone.

Looks like all but a couple of the November new hire class went to the ERJ145 and some will get ERJ Captain right out of training. Yet another success story for a great company. You can definitely drink the koolaid. Clearly a great time to go to Commutair and get a quick path to the left seat on the 145.
