jetBlue March 8th/9th Interview Session

[Vastly Underemp]

Kayman, congrats on the call, but we're going to have to trade Holy Grail quotes for me to believe you'll be senior to me! Maybe we'll be in upgrade class together someday.....

Smitty, hang in there dude, the water's warmer in some spots than others......

Skirt, I'm getting awfully thirsty, but I can wait for August

[pilotgolfer]

I'm starting to feel like the fat kid in gym class who got picked last all the time. Has anybody else gotten word...is there anybody else waiting??

 

[CalBuff]

Pilotgolfer, you are not alone. I too am feeling a bit left out. What's up?!!! March 8 interview and no word yet. . . . any day now I hope. . .

 

[PDXcheezhead]

Accuracy unverified.

Best of luck to all those still waiting. I gotta believe this is the week (week 12 I think).

Don't worry guys. The calls will come thru soon and you'll be doin' the breaststroke with the rest of us. ;-)

[pilotgolfer]

OK...Verna really does exist. I was starting to wonder. Add me to the list. The bad news is that I will probably have to tread water until October or November.

Scott

 

[PDXcheezhead]

Congrats!! Worth the wait - she's a nice Lady, ey?
Well the FIRST wait anyway...

d=)

 

[CalBuff]

Yep, got the call from Verna today as well. In the pool and looking at October or November class - so another long wait begins. . . . this one should be easier. Any others still waiting?

 

[LaGarbage Man]

Hey Guys:

Congratulations to all on the news. It looks like the list is almost complete. I have been in contact with my compadre FlyiGuy and he has informed me that he has accepted another opportunity out in the flying world and that we could remove him from the list. With that said we just need to hear the good word from xcrjdriver to finish it off for now. I know that you all will keep the thread up to date with your class dates and equipment types as that info comes in. Keep the thread alive as long as you can. It is a great place to share intel and also gives you a head start on getting to know something about your future class mates. Got2Go, 2wheelz and myself are just heading into Procedures trainers tommorow so the fire hose will once again be turned up to full force and will occupy most of what little gray matter I have left. I will try and pass any good intel along as we hear it down hear in MCO. Also thanks PDX for picking up the list duties. I apologize for not updating from down hear in FL.

Once again Congratulations and welcome to the Blue Crew.

[My Man SMITH!]

Pilotgolfer and CalBluff, congrats guys. Welcome to the pool. It's great to hear the hardest wait is finally over for most of the guys from our group. Can't wait to meet everyone in class! Wheelz and Garbage man, thanks for the updates! Good luck with the rest of training. Now if the Pistons can just pull this one out it will be an AWESOME night!

 

[xcrjdriver]

Hey fellow poolies sorry have not posted sooner. Got the call from Verna 3rd week of May. Swimming until Sept. or later. Decision time Southwest also called passed their decision board. Time to get the type. Looks like a July or August class date with LUV.

 

[PDXcheezhead]

Everyone's accounted for...

To all my fellow poolies and everyone in class for that matter: Please stay in touch here with any updates, intel, scoop, heck even a good joke. This board is the one of the only things that reminds me daily that there is a light at the end of an increasingly dark mesaba tunnel d=)

[pilotgolfer]

How many of you guys are presently furloughed from other airlines? I've been out since 4/29 from ATA and October seems so far away. Anybody else in the same situation?

Scott

 

[CalBuff]

furloughed from NW in Dec 01. Been flying corporate and waiting for SOME good news ever since. . . .yesterday Verna delivered.

Looks like the 95% Phase II figure in pretty accurate. For Capt Dad's sake though, I sure wish it had been 100 %.

I know the pool wait seems like an eternity, but there's still much more growth in the works, even with our small slowdown.

Scott

Furloughed or just plain slam-dunked. I know there were a lot of IDE guys at the Mar. 8/9 interviews.

[Vastly Underemp]

Furloughed 10/02 from TWA

 

[pilotgolfer]

OK let me re-phrase that. How many of you are not currently working? I need some ideas how to pass the time on a low budget. I've tried watching the grass grow, watching the paint dry, etc.
