Anyone heard from NWA?

[Workin'Stiff]

Yep, under review

Is everybody that's going back getting the -9, or are some guys getting the Bus?

the 9

 

[CL600Pilot]

the 9

Sort of....some already have Airbus class dates in Sept. (they were furloughed from the Airbus) and may or may not actually fly the -9 when they're done with -9 training.

 

[Occam's Razor]

New hires will go to both the DC-9 and the A320. The Airbus training program is spinning-up for New Hire training. It will vary from class-to-class.

NWA is sending out PS3 and XBox consoles to ERAU to train in the 300 hour wonderpilots on how to fly the Airbus.

Any new hires going to the 9 will be sent an old Atari pong console to train on equipment of comparable age and technology.

Actually, I think the Atari might be a little bit too advanced.

Heyas,

Ain't that the truth. More like old school pinball, complete with the lights, thunks, buzzers and bells (don't forget the mechanical score!)

But the -9 was fully Y2K compliant without modifications!

Back in the day, NWA was putting new hires in the -9, right seat of the 727, 320 and 757 and the back seat of the whale, so this is nothing new.
