Update from Kim Today

Spoke with Kim today. She said they'll be 20 in the Nov 15th class, 20 in the Nov 29 class, and 24 in the Dec 13 Class. I'm progged for the 3 Jan class and she said I was about 10 away from making the 13 Dec Class, so not to get my hopes up. Doing some quick math--that puts me at about 74 in the pool. Here are my stats:

22 April--Interviewed
20 June--Typed and put in the pool that day
3 Jan--tentitive class date if things move as forecast.

I asked how far ahead of me my buddy was who's pool date is 14 June...she said he was about 20 in front of me. So if your pool date is ~14 June then you can guess that you're around 54th in the pool. So considering that the 20th was a Sunday, I'm guessing that the cutoff for the 13 Dec Class is probably a pool date (interview date or date you got your type rating...whichever is later) of 16 or 17 June.

Looking forward to meeting all of you who will be in Dallas to kick off a great new year. Best of luck for those of you waiting for the big interview call. Enjoy the holidays, but get prepared now. I look forward to your success (and getting me off reserve :) )--gotta love those win-win situations!!

I'm in class right now (Oct. 4 start). I don't know what mgmnt has up their sleeve but our instructor's said the training dept. was recently asked how many pilots they could train per year. After a careful analysis the answer is 750. I hope they train that many next year!

Good luck to all...
 
hey Mach Zero,
You stole my avatar!!!! But, since I'm trying to get on at SWA myself (going to HPA soon) , I will trade you my avatar for your recommendation :)
 
SWA Interview

Im in it!

Interview June 23rd. No call for class yet. Expecting early January...

Next...
I interviewed June 23 also and expect Jan class. Looking for Dec 13 class as a goal to achieve.
Have a great SWA poolie day!!!
 
I interviewed July 12th and I expect late January / early Feb. January would be nice, but February is probably more realistic. In the meantime, I'm enjoying my retirement! Also, good luck to all in the next round in the upcoming DB.

Cheers
 
Finally got the call.
Interviewed May 19 and was called on the 18th for a Nov. 15 class.
Any other calls?

Nice work Strftwb! Are you in the pool? If not you really should be because the summary you posted was awesome. Looks like we now have an "unofficial" pool list well underway.

Good luck to all waiting to go to DAL. Enjoy your friends and family as much as you can because it will be a long 6 weeks away once you get there.

Interviewed Jun 21, expecting early Jan class. Looking forward to seeing you all there. Best of luck to all of the hopefuls out there.

Thank you Turbojet. The list is definitely "unofficial". SWA is doing a great job of telling us their best guess for classes, but I thought it would be fun to watch everybody move up the list, and help keep us informed. I did not post my info because my date was already on the list. I interviewed on July 22. I am bringing up the rear....for now. Keep the good info coming!!!!

In the pool means . . . .

OK, I'm a new-bee, so somebody help me. To be "in the pool" means that you have recieved the "continue" call after the DB???? Is that right? I interviewed in Oct and am awaiting the Nov DB.
