For Tremit
Tremit:
The intial training is good but really tight, and it depends if you need a full type rating or just a conversion course.
If your family have a europian passport they can join you within few days on visit visa, but if you want them to wait until they get their resident visa then it might take up to six weeks.

Several 777 FOs I have flown with recently were about to start command training and anticipate 787. Maybe there is a swell of FOs that are reaching the upgrade level. I don't know but that would seem a possibility.

Somebody mentioned all upgrades( presumably from 777 fleet) will start on 787.... Haven't heard anything officially, but if this is true May explain the hold on outside DECs

The fact that a large wave of senior FO's approaching their
command upgrade was a "unforeseen circumstance", should
indicate to you the level of incompetence that runs this airline.

We were told that the ones coming from "Boeing" will stay on boeing and there will be no change between Airbus-Boeing pilots anymore, as a "new" company rule... So people with 737 will go on 777. But since I am not in, I cannot confirm it.

U
There is no written rule any of us have seen, and noticed a few exceptions here and there, but in general the Boeing rated pilots tend to go to 777, until last few months joining directly on 787.
McDonnell Douglas, B717, MD11 generally can expect Boeing
Everyone else seems to be fit into Airbus fleet somewhere.

What's the difference between an SO and an FO? Are you considered an SO until you are released not having to fly with a safety pilot?
How flexible are they with starting dates once you've made it through the selection? Can you negotiate it or will they offer a "take it or leave it" date? will you have to redo the assessments if too much time passes?
thank you very much
