[NoCompromise]

I just talked to the PD today. The other tentative Jan dates are the 16th and the 30th. Also, I was told there is 1 class scheduled for Feb and 2 classes for Mar (don't know the dates). They won't make calls for any of the classes until just before 30 days prior.

One potential cause for concern is that according to the PD, the age 65 ruling is supposed to happen on Dec 12th and it takes effect immediately. According to them, that would obviously cause them to reevaluate/change their hiring plans. Can anyone confirm or deny the Dec 12th date? I would've thought this would be all over the forum since it affects everyone. I'm soooooo ready to get out of this pool, but age 65 (if it's true) plus the slowdown in growth could be VERY bad for all of us poolies.

 

[GFunk20]

Hmm I never heard anything about a Dec 12th decision. Most people were thinking it'd be passed next year sometime, if not after the election even.

Thanks for the info, fingers crossed.

 

[Flyarcticcat]

Just heard the new number for 2008 was 250 pilots after the latest scale back. I hope that is a low projection.

 

[hyeflyin]

Does anyone know what is the exact number of people that are in the pool. I've heard as low as 300 to over 400. Just wondering if anyone has heard the exact count? Thanks.

Got the call. I was meaning to ask for info for the other classes, but then she sidetracked me talking 'bout other stuff and I forgot. Sorry..., but will remember if I talk to them again!

 

[cherry20's]

I just heard again today that 250 would be a max number of pilots hired in '08 if the economy picks back up. Same Capt. also said not to expect interviews in '08. I still don't like the sound of this.

On a good note, congrats to the poolies with class dates.

 

[50Pesos]

I talked to the PD this morning. I found out that I am in the tenth class and sitting about 200 in the poll including the Jan 9th class. So I am looking at late summer early fall. I how this helps. Happy Holidays

 

[GFunk20]

Must've been a lot of non-FI users they called, as it doesn't look like this Jan 9 class drained too far down our list!

 

[BlueandWhite]

Must've been a lot of non-FI users they called, as it doesn't look like this Jan 9 class drained too far down our list!

I estimate only about a quarter to a third of the pool is on this list. That's judging by how many have gotten crossed off with the previous classes.

Another drop in a large pool... 6/8/07

[BlueandWhite]

Hey usa, are you an ex-Sheppard guy?

 

[TristarPilot]

Looks like some of us might be in the pool for the long haul.

Pool Party - Pack up those fruity drinks, bring your suntan lotion and don't forget your bikini-clad girlfriends and/or wives. Certified Scuba Instructor - Conducting Scuba lessons in the deep end of the pool. Gotta' beat treading water.

Maybe JKE406 can bring his grape smugglers and another picture of Hillary........!!!!

sweet, the first worthwhile post on this thread since it started!

ballgag and others--enjoy the sausage convention at your "pool party." watch out for Tanker Clown if he crashes the gig; I hear he's a not afraid to take the dirt road.

 

[GhettoBeechjet]

I talked to MR in the people department today. No news or firm schedule beyond the Jan 9th class. If anyone in the deep end of the pool needs a job to tide them over until your class date send me a private message.
