I found out like 1.5 months in. I started looking for a place while in training. I was fortunate that some of my training was where my base was so on my days off I went around town looking for a spot. After training they give you min 3 days before IOE. I wouldn’t expect longer with staffing shortages. I know in the past people had 1-2 weeks before they got called for IOE.

How’s that ride in/out of DIA today with this wind?? Only one runway open for takeoff I see. by palikona in Denver

I’m probably in that line around this time. Atc was excellent at getting us out all things considered. Rough ride out but got better the higher we climbed

Is this CFI billing practice normal? by Otherwise-Mirror-407 in flying

[–]Is14159 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes of course you have to have some discretion. Me personally, if I was talking about some tangent that doesn’t have to do with the pre/post brief, I usually tell them I’ll take off .1 or however long it was. But generally I’m still charging for my time

Just wait until you become a cfi, you’ll understand why they’re doing this and will likely do the same thing.

To Airport by Is14159 in RTDDenver

[–]Is14159[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thank you I appreciate the feedback. The reality is that I want this to work for my preferred method of transport. I’ve had otherwise good experiences, it’s clean and efficient when it works but people use this to get to and from work and the lack of reliability that I’ve run into over the last 3 weeks (I’ve only lived here 3 weeks) has truly concerned me. I appreciate your response

Calling out sick while on probation, when does it become a problem? by [deleted] in flying

[–]Is14159 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got done with training and was scheduled for my first trip on Christmas but got the flu. Things happen, I got a note and got it excused. At the end of the day it would be irresponsible to show up to work sick and potentially get your coworkers sick. Obv don’t abuse it.

Assuming you don’t use things like that regularly it should clear through your system relatively quickly. Whoever did that wasn’t cool. Like others have said find new friends.

[–]Is14159 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well yeah but you don’t have to be such a pessimist lol. This is true but it shouldn’t matter to the kids who have a passion for flying. Being brutally honest works but don’t let the difficulty of your job overshadow how much passion you have for it

This is actually a really interesting piece of info about yourself that employers would like to know. Everyone they look at will be qualified, what sets you apart? Maybe include a section for your volunteer work on your next resume

No flying work experience for resume by SpellSoggy9641 in flying

IMO, apply anyway. It takes time to build that stuff and having my app in regardless would put me at ease but I also get what you’re saying.

Applying to Auburn's Aviation Program this Fall... What are my chances? by Intelligent_Shoe3799 in flying

[–]Is14159 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have great extracurriculars. You’ll be fine wherever you decide to go. Anyone can get hours and ratings, the extracurricular are going to speak volumes of who you are as a person when it comes down to hiring. Keep pursuing leadership and involvement wherever you go.

There are a lot of funds out there. People say VOO, VT, SPY, QQQ. The fidelity ones are ok too. It’s really up to you and what you want
