FedEx Poolie Calls, Second Thread...

[fishalaska]

I was told by KD that there are approximately 300-350 in the pool as of about a month ago. She stated that the goal is to empty the pool by December.

Thanks for the info,

I was told by KD that there are approximately 300-350 in the pool as of about a month ago. She stated that the goal is to empty the pool by December.

When was the last group interviewed and put in the pool?

Just wondering where I sit in that 300-350.

Future FedEx 727 class dates

While I was wandering around the Falcon building today looking for the classroom for my warmup, I found a spreadsheet pinned up in the training hallway with the future 727 classes.

Here goes:

Class Gnd School
Number Start Date Capt F/O S/O
07-03 19 Jul 06 4 6 0
07-04 26 Jul 06 4 6 0
07-05 16 Aug 06 4 6 16
07-06 23 Aug 06 4 6 14
07-08 13 Sep 06 5 5 16
07-09 20 Sep 06 2 8 14
07-10 11 Oct 06 1 9 16
07-11 18 Oct 06 1 9 14
07-12 8 Nov 06 0 10 16
07-13 15 Nov 06 0 10 14
07-14 6 Dec 06 0 10 16
07-15 13 Dec 06 0 10 14
07-16 3 Jan 07 4 6 16
07-17 10 Jan 07 2 8 14
07-18 31 Jan 07 0 10 16
07-19 7 Feb 07 0 10 14


Realize that those are ground school start dates, not Basic Indoc. BI would be about 2 weeks earlier, give or take.

(That chart looked good when I typed it, but now the formatting is messed up... sorry)

Sluggo, Thanks for the info.

If you overlay the MOAB's training letter results over those class sizes you come up with the following vacancies per class...

Systems Class Date, FO New Hires, SO New Hires
16 Aug, 0, 16
23 Aug, 0, 14
13 Sep, 3, 16
20 Sep, 8, 14
11 Oct, 8, 16
18 Oct, 9, 14
8 Nov, 10, 16
15 Nov, 10, 14
6 Dec, 2, 16
13 Dec, 0, 14
3 Jan, 0, 16
10 Jan, 0, 14
31 Jan, 0, 16
7 Feb, 3, 14

Those would also align with the last memo saying 727 SO classes to start in August with FO openings in September.

Just curious....

Are there any openings for SFS right now? Are those posted somewhere or are they always looking for volunteers....

Thanks!

 

[Purple Nugget]

From what I've heard, there are almost always openings in Subic. If that's what you want, and will commit to a 2-year adventure, talk to your sponser, they should be able to get you right in.

 

[Malter1]

Thanks for the quality intel Nugget. Are you a Jan guy? Any idea how many are non-MD 11 Jan poolies? Trying to guesstimate my class.......

 

[XJguy]

From what I've heard, there are almost always openings in Subic. If that's what you want, and will commit to a 2-year adventure, talk to your sponser, they should be able to get you right in.

He did call about 4-6 weeks ago, and they said that everyone getting a call at that time was hand picked. I guess I will ask about it when they call with a class date .


With this new training schedule, will they start filling the classes right away? In other words, will they start calling us now even if the class doesn't start until Sept. or Oct.? Or do they usually wait until 2-4 weeks prior to the class to actually make the calls??

Thanks for the info!:beer:

(Also from late Jan.)

 

[Rusty Nail]

Late Jan here as well...no call yet.

 

[WorldOnTime]

Late Jan here as well...no call yet.

That's because they hate you. Yeah, that's right I said it. I overheard it in the AOC...."Don't call Rusty Nail. He cheats at cards and drinks too much!"

See you here soon pal.
