Default Longest time in a pool?
Sorry could not type complete tittle due to length.

My question, is what is the longest time someone spent in a pool?
I was hired last Apr by one airline and in June by another, placed in a pool by both. Got an email from one of them saying i am till in the pool.

Honestly i am not expecting a call anytime soon or anything like that.
I am just curious what the longest time you guys have heard of someone swimming ???

A guy I had flown with sometime ago said he was in the SkyWest pool years ago for upwards of 18 months...

You have a pretty good gig now, though, don't you?

I'd have to say about 4 hours. I start to get wrinkly fingers after awhile....
