July 10th in the AM. From the email traffic, all 6 interviewees got the call. Pretty amazing, 4 were military of some variety (guard/reserve/active and retired) and 2 civies flying 737s for CAL.

Disco, three of us in the afternoon got the call so far. I'm holding out hope for the others. Great showing though for your group. I was the CAL guy that showed up early and met most of you guys as you were leaving from your session.

See you at LUV soon.

Just a call from an ACP with his number to call with any questions. He asked that I don't call the ladies at the PD since they are pretty busy right now. He didn't have class date info, but a friend who always seems to have good info said 2 classes a month through the rest of the year, 600 hires next year, and Denver opening a base in 6-8 months. I can't swear by any of it, but I trust the source since he is a pretty good intel source.

Can't speak for the recent new hires, but I am a Dec pool date and have not been offered a class date yet. To all those that got the call recently congrats!
