I should be more clear: for people going through Indoc now, are those classes being told they will be AQP once they get back from the delay?

AQP still hasn't been approved for new hires by the FAA. The second class that is in the small group trial is supposed to validate the results of the first group. That second group is slotted to finish up near the end of December, with OE in January. It's fair to say that it will be at least the first quarter next year before the FAA approves the program, assuming they won't require a third group to go through the process after the second group finishes.... as far as classes coming back after their break, I think it will depend on when you are scheduled to come back?

I was told this week by RAH that Dec Indoc folks should expect late March training date.

The October 30th Indoc class was told to expect AQP following FAA approval after the validation group, assuming nothing surprising happens. Their last checkride is tentatively scheduled for December 28th.

I believe the October 15th Indoc class was the first one told to expect AQP when they return from break the first week of January.

Hopefully for all, with the AQP approval and getting thru the holiday break, the backlog will reduce and things will speed back up.

No break/delay for the Oct 30th Indoc then? If the last checkride is Dec 28th, they'll have to continue training next week. I wonder if further classes will not see much of a delay either now that they're going to AQP.

I think they meant the last non aqp ride is December 28th, then they change over and start the aqp stuff

10/2 will not be AQP according to training because we start technically 12/18 but who knows

This is correct. The validation group that was in the 8/24(?) Indoc class will finish on 12/28. Assuming things are validated, they anticipate FAA approval in the following days, meaning any classes returning to Basic Indoc (8 days, after the delay), will be AQP.

It sounds like the delay is still around 2 months. Is that accurate?

Are there any work obligations besides home study during those two months, or are you totally free? Thanks.

I was told at least 2-3 months backed up by the company on Monday, possibly more but they expect to clear some of it with AQP starting... Said come to Indoc, get an ipad, go home until training date. You have a systems learning course to take on ipad or computer prior to coming back to training. Was told you could continue to work elsewhere as well until coming back for training. Most important thing is your seniority starts at Indoc so its really not a bad thing if Republic is your choice, especially around holiday time.
