On the waitlist, my recruiter doesn’t seem too positive either on being able to move to an earlier date. Over the last several months, it seems like most people were able to move up to an earlier class date but now it feels like that is not really a possibility for some reason. Not sure if people are now sticking out the long wait no matter what or if it is a new way they are managing the waiting list.

Default Training footprint

Now that everything is in person, what’s the total footprint from day 1 to checkride?

Default dress code?

We have to have all of CBT's completed between Tuesday night and Sunday night. Glad I'm staying here, because I'd be way to distracted at home to get them done, plus it's a full days travel on each end. I think I counted 52 separate classes that need to be done, so average 10-11 per day to stay on target.

Cheers!
I'm still more than 90days out so don't have much info but wanted to ask about the dress code, it's business casual? Button-down with tie? Polo ok? Does SkyWest give out any polos? (I've seen Endeavor class with all the same polo on). Reason being I don't have a weeks worth of business causal wardrobe.

Thanks! Got any more info on the full training footprint as far as if you are staying away from home through the end or are there any breaks?

I wore khakis and polos almost all the way through and it was fine. Gonna have to wear at least that…and Skywest does not give out polos.

I had a few days off here and there. Day 1 or 2 of your ground school, you will pick your schedule. It all really depends on what schedule you pick from what is available. Some people in my class wound up with 9 days off over Christmas between LOFT and their checkrides. I didn’t want 9 days off before my checkride, so I chose the schedule that gave me 5 days to prepare for my checkride over Christmas. I wound up being the first in my class to complete the checkride, which was nerve racking, but got it knocked out.
