CR9:
8-DTW
SF3:
DTW/MEM-hard to say I don't know how many current MEM/DTW based new hires are staying put... I would guess DTW would get the bulk and then maybe 10 or less would goto MEM

About 2 weeks. The training dept is extremely busy and things change constantly. I got ym class date confirmed about 2 weeks out because I told them I needed to give my employers their 2 week notice.

Interview is not tough at all...very relaxed. The test has some ATP stuff on it IIRC...basic IFR stuff from the AIM as well. Ground school is not difficult either, XJ has some very good instructors. Ask questions when you don't understand something and get in a study group...you will do fine. As far as the pass rate, they have said that its not as high as they would have liked. But I didn't find ground school to be difficult at all. Good luck!
