Were right in the middle of this training. ( I was hired Aug 20th)
If you come on as an EJA captain you will go to either indocs or Flt Safety first ...... those two items will take 4 weeks for the schooling. You get a break inbetween....
so a couple of more weeks.
After that you will come back to CMH for more performance training on your plane and flight training that includes an oral and flt check, all that lasts about a week... It seems EJA feels compelled to show you the NetJets way of flying because the Flight Safety method aint good enough.
Then you go home (for a week or two) and come back for 25 hours with an IOE. Then the main oral and flight Check (299).
After that, you take some more time off, back again for 100 to 250 hours of supervised flight with another captain, (you are then called and considered a captain in training) and somewhere in the last go around, you are blessed and out on your own.
YOu will not be paid as captain until somewhere after your 2nd or 3rd check flight.. ( we've heard it starts with the 25 hour block, and also heard, you get the bucks at the 299 check) dont know which is right because we havent got that far yet.
If your thinking of taking the FO slot it is about 4 times less painfull in time and checkrides as the Captains slots. Four days of training after flt sim and indocs and your done.
If you screw up your check rides or orals you get two more chances and then your out.......no downgrading to FO. So far for our class, everyone at the company has been very helpful.
We are the 3rd bunch to go through and have been told that out of 30 or so pilots finishing, only 3 have busted out. They didnt tell us the details as to the background of those few.
Choose your future wisely.........
