Sweet-BUT, will most of these new hires come from Expressjet?

NO. The majority of the new hires are coming from off the street candidates....

My friend was also hired this week. He had one internal recommendation. The rec was from another new hire.

Just one recommendation???!!! What gives? He must have had 10,000 hours and a Space Shuttle type!

Jiminy Christmas!

All it takes is one!

Congrats! When is your class date? BTW, I heard that we are increasing the hiring based on the projected block hours for next year. I've been seeing ALOT of guys in suits around here lately. Also saw one of the ATA 757's over by the hangar today.

Keeping my fingers crossed, I really miss the 757...

If what I was told by a friend who was just hired is true, you will see it again along with the 767. Training has apparently decided that due to the lack of 756 FO's, the next few classes will ALL go EWR 757.

Yeah, looking forward to it. Got the call less than 24 hours after the interview and have a 9/13 class date. Looking forward to coming to Houston.

I saw on of our old 757-300's at IAH as well, the ATA markings are gone! So sad, but glad that it will have a CAL paint-job soon!

Who's been posting the class break down at CAL each week? Don't they start on Tuesdays? Anyone know who, how many, and where they're going?

Pig,
He started class yesterday. He might be too busy too post. I am kind of curious myself about the rumor that everyone is going 756. When do you start?

Pig,

Not true. A few from a prior class got the 756 in EWR. Most have been assigned to the EWR 737

 

[Bigbeerbelly]

My friend went in to his EWR chief pilot to ask about the status of my application. His CP said that I am on the list to be called for an interview. Does anyone know what that means? Should I be expecting a call from CAL in the next few weeks or does it just mean that I am qualified?

[pkober]

I had the same thing. The CP said they would call in a month and I got the call one month later. Its a good sign.

Good Luck.
