FedEx Poolie Calls, Fourth Thread

[geauxfly]

Pool....OK, if it is a small group, then either our numbers are off or others have already looked elsewhere. Surprised they would run 2 small classes (14 then 12) back to back but who knows. It would help to know how many got the call from your interview group. I'm still holding out hope for the 11th.....thanks.

Geauxfly, I asked KD how many total in the class and she told me 12. One of my buds on the line told me the next class after mine is supposed to be much bigger (30 SO's). Best of luck to all!

Sorry, Geaux

I only really kept in touch with one guy from my group. We both were called today. We were both in the pm session of 5 that made it through. I don't know about the am group of 5, other than they all made it past the sim.

Good Luck and Happy Halloween!!!!!

Got the call yesterday for Dec 4 - yessss! Congrats to all. No new info from pilot recruitment -all FE, 12 etc.

Would have posted sooner but my hard drive crashed - talk about forced cold turkey on the FI addiction.

Gents -

727 FO/SO Indoc & training is 10-11 weeks total, depending if there is any type of holiday break involved.

Our class started Mon, 28 Aug and most of us finished up our final training checks this week (you get three - an oral, a sim check and a walk-around check). Most of us start IOE next week.

While some of the sim training has been done off-site (FOs to Miami and SOs to Orlando), the only 727 classes you'll be called for will be classes to Memphis (i.e. there are no separate classes to Miami or Orlando).

The reason you're seeing smaller class sizes in December is because the busiest time at FEDEX is Thanksgiving thru Valentine's Day...alot of pilots who work in training, stds and other office positions are needed on the line to move freight --- taking care of the customer and generating revenue is still more importnat than training us new hires.

Anyway, good luck to all you guys ---- hope you guys get on the property soon and get thru training ---- the quicker you do, the quicker I can get off reserve!

[Hagar17]

Hello, MEM!!

KD just called to update my wee wee test for an 11 Dec class, 30 people, all 727 FEs.

Nice Christmas present!

This pool is getting too cold anyway...

I got the same call for the 11 Dec class date just 2 hours after my drug test call. Sounds like all the FO slots are done with.

Noreaster:

So you received two seperate calls, one for the p-test, the other for the class? Maybe they got tired of calling 30 bubbas and combined mine.

The FE panel is a good place to spend the first year. Don't sweat it.

[noreaster]

Not sweating at all...just happy I don't have to check this freakin board anymore. You know?
