Netjets INDOC and beyond

Good afternoon everybody,


I still have 3 months to go until INDOC but I canīt stop wondering:
  • How long is it?
  • When will I receive further information about it?
  • What does happen there? Classes, tests?
  • Where to sleep&eat, what to wear – I heard shirt and tie? (ok, trousers and the usuals stuff, I know )
  • When will we know about the a/c type we get?
  • How long between INDOC and type rating?
  • What does line training look like?
Anybody willing to share some information?

Indoc's 2 weeks long. That also includes SEPs, water drills, lots of form filling out and the occassional social outing.

You'll find out the details about a week or so before you go.

What happens? Take your swimmers, bank details, business attire as well as casual clothes. Take a bigger bag for part of your uniform etc. Budget about 5-6 Euro/day for lunch and whatever for dinner. A couple of dinners will be bought for you. You will be paid your 70 E per diems.

You'll find out your aircraft at Indoc. Rarely it changes whilst on Indoc.

Indoc and type rating. About a week to 2 weeks. Type rating lasts about 3 weeks for most types. 6 weeks for the Gulfstreams.

The delay can be some weeks post base training can take a while because there's no available line trainers. Hopefully, that won't be a problem.

Line training? Well, you get paired up with a line trainer and off you go for 6 thrill filled days. Repeat until all the sectors and boxes ticked. Depending on your previous experience it could be 20 sectors or 40 sectors minimum.

Check your pm.

Hi everybody,

what's a SEP?

And can I get the same info as Cpt Schmerzfrei (via P.M.), because we're in the same INDOC?

Thx, Olli

Hi guys,


I will be joining you during the june Indoc as well.

So could someone please send me those PMs redsnail sent around?

@ Mike Jenvey,

why would we need a second passport exactly? Have been flying over 10 years and never heard of it but then again, NJE is a totally new experience for me so any tip is worth its letters in Gold!

Looking forward to it ( Not too sure about that Blackberry but hey....)

Take care

two reasons:

1) When one is handed off to authorities for visa application, you will still be able to work.

2) Some countries, ex. Israel and rest of Middle East, US and Cuba have diplomatic "difficulties" (for lack of better words). Having a stamp from one may give you problems when attempting to enter the other. Having two passports will make your role as an apolitical character easier, and limit the number of questions from immigration personnel.

Does that mean the second passport is issued by the home country again or...?

Ok, makes sense....

But I do not think all authorities authorise you to have two passports...

Ill check it.

One worry I found somewhere else on the net

One pair of underwear will last you 4 days, as long as u turn them inside out and around...

did not know it was THAT small!

Yes, I know different countries have different rules. I am Danish, and all it took for me was a letter from the company (not NetJets) stating that I, due to my frequent travel to yaddayaddayadda, needed an extra passport, and if possible a third passport. I got the second by filling out a normal application and was advised that the third would require a written application to the ministry of internal affairs

One pair of underwear will last you 4 days, as long as u turn them inside out and around...
Or... you can do a couple of push-ups when putting on the uniform for the umpteenth time without drycleaning, should break off the worst crust... I have been told

I have 3, although one's an Australian passport. It stays in the safe at home.

I was informed that if you threw your undies at the wall and they sticked, it was time to change them. Otherwise, they're good to go.

Note. I do not do this!
