[auspac]

mmm......he has already chosen to go SKW boys. So lets drop it. No reason to start one of those my airline is better than yours. Makes everyone look like tools.

Actually I think he's with SkyWest, so it's more of a Your airline is better than mine!

I've been on reserve in SLC for 3 months, not bad cause I'll still credit over 100 a month, but if u commute, kinda sucks. ORD is short 20 FO's. Best of luck

Ok, so it kinda sounds like I'll get ORD (least you didn't say MKE) over any of my CA choices. Since I'll be commuting do you think that I could at least hold a line somewhat quickly so I'm not sitting around at a hotel/crash pad when I'm there? That would definately make it more bearable till I could get back out this way. Thanks for all your inputs.

I heared today in ground school that we were canceling upgrade classes in the up coming months.[/quote]


Are they really cancelling upgrade classes for Oct? I talked with the woman in charge and she said she is awarding the first class in Oct next week. this would be a bummer because I was gonna be in that class. oh well

 

[Vegaspilot99]

Maybe, if they are cancelling upgrade classes, it is due to a lack of FO's to take the upgrading FO's place.

How long have you been an FO before getting the CA award?

 

[kj6991]

Well I haven't gotten the award yet. I heard they are still running the Oct 6th class. I've been here 2 years

oct class will be the last one for captains this year. remaining classes will be all FOs until 2008

 

[BigLebowski]

who is your source that they are cancelling classes? I know we're getting fat on CA's and very short on FOs...but I just talked to my chief yesterday and he said he had heard nothing of that.

Who said this??? Normally we get emails letting us know stuff like this is happening.

Guess I'm glad I got the September class.

my FO got the word from VA, who awards classes
