 |  121 Checkride Passed!
I did it! I passed my checkride for the Q400 this morning, and have a brand new (SIC) type rating on my certificate now. One more sim session to go (the LOFT ride tonight) and in less than 24 hours I'll be with my family!  |

Congrats! Its always a good feeling to pass the ride. Have they told you when the first Q is showing up? Have they said when you'll be able to do your IOE? How about what they are going to do with you in the interm? Getting paid?

Seriously though, we're supposed to have the first plane delivered on 12/28, and the schedule is supposed to begin 1/21 (though I strongly suspect that date may end up being changed). They've told me nothing about when we get to do IOE or what we're doing in the interim, but supposedly we start getting our guarantee the day we finished our training, so at this point, until get me some flying to do, I suspect we'll be getting paid to do - absolutely nothing! Hopefully I'll know more right after the first of the year. | |

Congrats! I am going to guess and say you are going to be done with IOE late Feb. early March. They are going to be hot to trot to get the captains done with IOE. Wouldn't be surprised if they send you to Manassas and do paperwork in the meantime! Enjoy the holiday and new year!
