FedEx Poolie Calls, Fourth Thread

Update call

I interviewed 5-6 Apr & was called early this week to update my drug test (again). The only class info I could get out of them was to expect a class date "soon"... I'll let you guys know more when I hear something.

This was an odd set of calls.....I don't think they got through the rest of Mar even though the numbers suggest it should have happened.

If cjj and wmss didn't get called yet, that throws things off a bit. There must have been a couple interview dates not posted. If each interviewing day had up to 12 more in the pool, every two dates that we are missing data could potentially fill an entire class. Or, it was one of those mini-classes without a full load.

Back to guessing.

Someone on airlinepilotforums.com posted that they were called to update the drug test. Their interview date was 19/20 April.

Possible November class date for that fella? Maybe/Maybe not?

Thanks

Noreaster....thanks for updating the information. I was trying to resist my FI/APC crack habit (and watch LSU toss away a great opportunity). I know of one guy who got called from the 19/20 Mar interview group for the 30 Oct class. I heard from cjj and he got the call to update his p test but not for a class.  They have been very true to the FIFO process so I figure everyone prior to that got calls (they may have deferred classes but at least they got a call). I've heard (or seen, can't remember) that there are 22 in the 30 Oct class with a mix of FO/SO slots. Rumor still has pool drained by Christmas.

I hope the rumor is true. The way I see it is that the only way for that to happen is for the class size to increase significantly. Anyone see it differently?

Does anyone have any class size data for the December Classes?

 

[FlyFedEx]

heard December will drain 42 from the pool...

 

[FlyFedEx]

cjj and wmss...have you guys been called for the 30 Oct class?

 

[wmss]

No call for me.

update

Add two more confirmed for the May 30/31, total 5 confirmed out of six. I never heard from the last guy so that is still unknown.

Looks iffy for a full draining by Xmas. The numbers we have look like @100 to go with three classes remaining. If the 42 figure for DEC is valid, that makes it unlikely.

I guess I'll have to spend the holidays with my family instead of studying.

JDriver, you may still have another 6 or so in the unknown June 6/7 slot, unless they cancelled that interview week.
