Maybe the same and the person I was flying with (came out of recurrent) misspoke!
YMMV
Still pretty impressive for Dec.!

Yes, it sure is good news. Thanks for the info

 

[ABITRATOR]

Any idea how long it's going to take to empty the pool and maybe start interviewing again?

Where are new hires getting assigned?

 

[johnsonrod]

Can anyone estimate the mix of military to civilian for newhires? Also, are a large number of newhires going to the 727 side saddle (I'd take it!)?

Where are new hires getting assigned?

CGN and HKG last year. There's an Eagle guy on this board who's in the pool now, maybe he'll chime in as to current class allotments. Hiring into 727 panel for this first part of 2012. Ratio appears to be 50/50. Plenty of commuter guys getting on. I know 4 personally from last year; however, all did have good sponsors either in training dept or mgmt pilot positions. Get yourself a good sponsor; that's the key.

After 6 months on the pool, I finally got some news on a classdate from my sponsor, it should be official this week. Basically I may be given a choice....1 is a surprise choice and waiting to hear on the other....until its official in a few days....I'll keep it to myself but will share info as soon as I get it. Things are starting to move again at FDX.

Also, my sponsor informed me that as soon as they start hiring again, those with impeccable apps....small number of PC busts, Mil exp and sponsors will get called first....good luck to all.

Whats the big suprise. Here are your choices. 727, 757, DC10, MD11 A300/A310 and 777. I don't see why it's a surprise.

jetjam,

Congrats and welcome aboard. The last thing we were told was that New Hires will be going to all seats except MEM 777. Although I don't see LAX MD
11 being available for a while.

In the last 12 months New Hires have gone to MEM 727 F/O and S/O, ANC MD11 F/O, HKG A300 F/O and CGN 757 F/O.

Here's hoping you are the tip of the arrow opening up the widebody seats in MEM.

Keep us updated.
