Anyone else in the CMR 5/9 class?

[Whitestoneclimb]

Got the call yesterday from Mike Gilmer at Comair offering me the job! Anyone else in the 5/9 class?

 

[imacdog]

Congrats on the job offer! I will be there 5/2.

Congratulations guys!!! We look forward to seeing you on line in a few months!

Congratulations, May 2nd for me too.

Start looking for somewhere to live in GSO or JFK! Actually, I don't know that to be true, but I wouldn't doubt it either.

Welcome aboard.

 

[imacdog]

Mike, are there still slots at GSO? That is what I am hoping to get but I have been searching around the CVG and JFK areas as well.

 

[JetPilot_Mike]

There were around 22 FO slots still open in GSO after the secondary bid.

Greensboro as far as I know is fully staffed. I just got my assignment in class last week and they told me I am staying in CVG. ( Bags are 1/2 way packed if and most likely when they tell me I am going to JFK)

As Mike said, there were 22 open FO slots as of the secondary bid. Those 22 slots will be, or have been filled with new hires.

Fully staffed on paper maybe. Of the 62 Captains for GSO, only 25 are available on June 1st.

GSO is fully staffed. It opens June 1st with limited crews (24-25) until the upgrades get out of training.

 

[chperplt]

GSO will open on June 1st with a limited number of block hours to accomodate the 50% crewing that will happen. Block hours will build up as the crews finish training.

how long did you guys wait from interview to be called? Congratulations to those just hired.

 

[doh]

Congrats to the new hires! Good news in a troubled industry.

I interviewed on a Tuesday and was called on Sunday, if you can believe it!

Good Luck.

Get out!

Seriously, though, congratulations! I had to wait the full 10 days about a year ago and was thrilled when I saw a thick envelope (they never called me). When I told my wife that the thickness of the envelope was a good sign, she told me that they probably just sent me a pack of tissues.

Yeah, I never expected a call on a Sunday. I was glad I wasn't horsing around when I answered the phone.
