Swa Pool 2

[Old School]

3 April Classes and 2 May Classes? 24 per class? Sorry buy my ADD keeps me from gleaning this info from the above thread.

For those keeping track, I talked w/ Diane Morton on Fri. She expects me to be in the 2nd May class on the 28th. Pool date - June 19th.

Did she say where in the class you would be?

Nope. I was told to expect an official notification in 1-2 weeks.

Yes, it's quite the privilege to have grown up in Pittsburgh and raised a Steeler fan. A great history of hard-nosed football, 5 rings, never a cheerleader on the field and a Steeler Bar to go to in every city I have ever lived. I think we might be slipping, ......a mascot named Steely McBeam??? Great pornstar name, though.

I have a 6/10 pool date, and I just missed (i think) the 4/23 class. Two more guys with a 6/10 pool date got the call today for the 4/23 class, and PD told me today that they are still waiting to confirm one more person to finalize that class.

For those who didn't know (like me), if two (or more) people have the same pool date, the tie-breaker is date of birth, with the edge going to the older guy.

Anyway...the point of this post is to say that a 6/10 pool date will be at the very top of the list to call for the 5/14 class.

Whatever happened with the whole headset TSO thing? What are folks using these days?

You have to wear a TSO headset starting June 1st.

Birthday is one but not the most important tie-breaker. The singlebiggest factor is getting an even spread between mil vs civ and or other backgrounds. They will even call guys from either source and move them up the list if that is what is needed to gain that good spread. Way more than coincidence that every military guy in my class who did not have previous 121 experience was with a civilian guy and thank God for it. I think it is great because as a former mil guy my commuter sim partner was awesome in showing me around 121 ops and the like. I think it works well for those of us that have more of an adjustment in the transition to this type of flying. Cheers, klr

I don't know how much this is true anymore. I was in the Feb class and we had 10 mil and 6 civ. We had 2 sets of sim partners that were both mil with no civilian flying experience at all.
