Very few people wear the hat. Mostly people that need to... . It gets damaged,lost, and some look like a sombrero....more shirts are better or if you are really want to blow a load of money the leather jacket which is amazing in winter. Best shirts/pants are at A Cut Above Uniforms, at least in my opinion, but sadly thats not part of the uniform allotment. Last I heard you can also use your uniform allotment to buy a roller board or a lunch bag.

Only 1 guy in my class bought the hat. After wearing the horrible shirts from Crew Outfitters (ugh) I bought a bunch of shirts from A Cut Above. Far, far better and more comfortable.

I love A Cut Above shirts. I'm coming from another airline gig so I have the luggage works and the lunch bag. Definitely need new shirts. Mine are an interesting shade of yellow.

There is no "757/767" type. There is a "B757" type and a "B767" type. If you earn either of them they put them both on your certificate. It looks like this: "B-757; B-767;" I have no idea why they don't list it as one type rating since they issue them both.

Interview date of Jan 6! Anyone have a current gouge? The most current I could find is from June. Has it changed much since then? I have no previous jet or turboprop experience; how much should I expect to know about a turbojet and how it works? Also, I would really love to stay on the west coast. Anything remotely junior west of SLC? Thanks for any and all info!

airlineinterviews has some up to date, few friends who just interviewed just it is still systems heavy, know electrical, fuel systems for your most recent twin, turbine was somewhat in depth...I hear most people still go to ORD/MSP, DEN and COS are the next and a few people get LAX after a few monthes but I guess SEA is opening up as well.
