VX has an FA class starting today. Pilot training, as per a training instructor at VX, is supposed to begin again in Jan. I originally heard Nov, but now Jan. Reserve staffing is thin, we could use more pilots. Since AK likes VX sooo much as to purchase VX for that price, I dont see AK automatically axing the VX processes. It will change over time, but I think most poolies are in good shape though the March timeframe.
