Since the original thread was getting way too long and turned into a bashing thread and boxing cage between several members, I decided to start a new one: SWA POOL II....again, if you want to bash, go somewhere else, but if you have info that is relevant to us poolies, then welcome. As I mentioned on the 'other' thread, I will post what I hear when I speak with the PD next week. Good luck to all of us waiting.
 
On www.airlinepilotforums.com there is a post saying that there are 3 classes of 24 in April. The first class and part of the second is retreads.

Take it for what it's worth...it's coming from a pilot message board.....but then again, if you are reading this, than you probably get your "news" from the Enquirer.

There was a memo in all of the PHX pilots mailboxes yesterday stating that there will be 3 classes in April with 24 in each. The dates are the 2nd, 9th and 23rd. The first class and part of the second class will be retiree's that have been rehired. It didn't say how many of the retired folks had been hired back.

I also "heard" that they are supposed to find out in the next week or so, which would make sense if they are starting class on the 2nd.
 
Hiring from pool. Southwest's last class for a few months is planned for April. Class will be mostly retired captains returning with possibly a few folks from the pool. 2007 hiring pool still has roughly 300+ sitting in it. No new "hiring pool" class start dates until early fall.
 
SplitBar--you've got old news... 3 Classes of 24 = 72 in April. SWA only had 45ish retires re-aply so even if all come back, there will be a lot of "poolies" drying off. I think the number of retreads will be much less then 40 so we shall see. I've got my eye on a towel, hoping to dry off. We'll see.
 
Have any poolies been contacted for the drug test? Isn't that a good indicator that you are within six months of starting class?
