SWA Question?????

[Slug]

Domiciles

Hey all,

Home for the weekend........SWA rules!

Assignments come out around the 28th of Feb or later. The Jan 6th class still doesn't have their's. Word is OAK......kind of a running joke. Possible other domicile since the April bids increase the BWI and MCO staffing, but who knows.

Average age was about 35 years old.

Oldest = 48
Youngest = 29
Me = 36.8 (I was 9 out of 20)

It's funny, I always assumed (and we know what that means) that you were much, much older...late 40's, early 50s. Must be the mature posts

OAK, you jumped in while i was typing. The last message was for Slug too!!!

31 here... looks like I'll sitting at the back of the room. Any others in the Feb 17th class care to mention age?

I'll be 38 on the 24th...the week after class starts....come on HOU (or PHX or DAL or MCO or BWI or MDW or OAK in that order)...but in the end...it just doesn't matter.

Big D in 9 days and a wake up...see ya there!

God I hope you're right, Dirty....my C-5 reserve buddy in CA just got ACTIVATED. Yeah, the Big A. I'm going to be chewing my nails to the bone for these 9 days....

Seeya there...(he said tentatively, slowly losing his sense of humor)

Oak,

Ground school is about 4 weeks long, with the weekends to yourself. I don’t think they care where you go as long as you are prepared for class.

After ground school, YOU (being a youngster and probably in the second half of the class based on age) can expect about 5 days before you start sims. After that comes some scheduled observation flights and then the four days with the check airman. Then comes your first full month of flying out of your temporary domicile (Maybe Oakland, you never know).

Finally, you will be sitting reserve out of your permanent domicile, probably, (drum roll please), Oakland! I’m guessing that will be about May-ish??

What am I saying? You’ll have quite a few days off in between and ample opportunity to see your boy. He won’t forget you!!!

And HPaul3, good luck to you. I’ll keep my fingers crossed!
