Yes, I heard the same from some pretty good sources.

Have any of you fellow poolies or new hires heard anything about your background check and whether they have the results or not?

Oct 7th Class

I was called this morning to join the Oct. 7th class. Was told they are adding to the class size and not just covering for a cancellation. No A/C or base info was given. They did have a class that started this past Monday, word has it that there were several CRJ700 FO slots in that class.

When did you interview Parethd70?

 

[asarjfo]

The November preliminary awards are out and there are a bunch of new hire slots for all airplanes and bases.

There was also an award for CR7 Captain slot for #1,007 (out of 1500 pilots) and #1,430 for EMB CA in DFW. I am pretty sure the EMB award will hold up, but I can't see the CR7 CA slot holding up. If it does the poor guy will be on reserve FOREVER!!!

The effective date for most of the awards is Feb. 2003, which is the date you can expect training (aircraft specific) to begin. With that I would imagine they will be running a bunch of classes from now until.......????

Got the call today...interviewed end of July. They are filling the Oct 21st and Nov 4th class.

GOOD LUCK Everyone

Any word on how many are getting the call for the Oct 21 and the Nov 4 classes. Anyone else out there that received the call?
Thanks

The instructors have been coming to class surprised that there will be classes for Nov and probably as December class as well.

I understand that the company "misunderestimated" the number of pilots required under the contract for the 70 seater and now is 100 to 200 behind where they think they should be.

The prelim numbers on 700 Capt. have not moved much. It sits at 1003 right now.
