I heard the rumor is a complete pull out of DEN. They are going to focus more on HRL. They want to really play more to the South Padre crowd.


I love the fact that you are a career man in the USAF.. You will never make it to a major carrier. I laugh at your foul attempt to put down either us or DAL in your pathatic attempt to think you will ever make it out of the Air Force. Someone knows you....better hope it is not here or DAL because you can kiss your chances away. better not piss off those in rank below you because they will make it out before you and remeber....don't piss off your FO(copilot) because they may be your Captain( Airline recomendation or blackballer) one day. I truly hope your not as much of an idiot in the AF as you are here...or our tanker and AF community is in ruins then.

Don't sweat it. A guy in the second class in April knows tanker.......I'll leave it at that.
 
I suppose after monitoring this thread for some time I might as well throw my name in the hat too.

I am one of the 6/17/07 poolies (MLG originally added me as such) with a 5/28/08 class date. Looking forward to seeing/meeting everyone in class. :beer:

Out of the pool headed for Dallas. Good luck to the rest of the poolies. Hopefully everyone will be in training before the end of the year.

I too have been a lurker! You can add me to the list - 26 July pool date. What's the latest rumor on more summer classes?
 
I spoke to the P.D. yesterday & there was no news . . . the one class in June is still the last one known for sure. As a 7/23 poolie, I'm being told I'll be in the third class after that June class. For whatever my opinion's worth, I get the impression that they (P.D.) are along for the ride pretty much like we are. We'll know about new classes very shortly after they do. In other words, I don't think they know the big picture and they're just not telling us. Thanks for joining me in 'coming out of the closet'! :D
 
It feels good to be out of the closet too! - Thanks for helping me out TOGA! ;) I would sure love to see several more classes run this summer - my magic eight ball keeps saying "it is decidedly so" so it has to be true! I hear Dallas is beautiful in August!:)

"So, at this time we are planning to retire 18 aircraft in 2008 instead of 22. We are taking 29 deliveries in 2008, then retiring 18, so that gives us a net of 11 aircraft in 2008, bringing our estimated 2008 year-over-year ASM capacity growth to approximately four percent."
 
Haven't been to this thread in awhile and realized I entered my Pool Date incorrectly. Got my type on 7/7/07. Made changes to the list accordingly.

So I guess only 210 out of 370+ would be drained out of the pool for 08.

It just depends on what numbers you are after. If you are just counting for aircraft deliveries then that would be it. But if you are counting for the pilots needed to fill in during RNP training then it could be a 100-150 more on top of the 210. If we decide to grow Denver and other cities it could change weekly.

All I can say is we need more pilots the amount of extra flying that is out there is hurting some of my weekends.
