Another comical thing, last summer when it was all CPP interviews, they got down to roughly the #700-800 pilots on the XJT seniority list. Pilots in that seniority range, AT THAT TIME, had a projected class date some time in 2018. AGAIN, AT THAT TIME, going on the numbers.

Best part was, that was BEFORE the extension of flying past 2017. Meaning, those pilots projected class dates were AFTER XJT would have been shut down and they're no longer employed by XJT. And with the vague/gray CPP language, UAL would be under NO OBLIGATION to put them in class since, well, they don't work at XJT anymore.....

I'm glad it's working out for the guys that were applying and just couldn't get their app pulled and FINALLY got a chance to go and were "accepted".

But for all the good guys with solid resumes, clean records, and like everyone else giving it their best shot and weren't "accepted" all over the BK broiler not liking being told whom he'll interview and when is pretty silly.
It's funny (and sad, at the same time)- UA has taken some of the most notorious and hated pilots from XJT, yet kicked some of our best and brightest to the curb. That, in and of itself, left a bad taste in our collective mouth over here.
