Last info from company is 74 sim to be up and running by February (to be seen), which should help training going forward. I believe we are also short on 74 instructors, so we shall see.
So, for the Jan 4 class, we all got a request to list our preferences in order from 1 through 8 and will be awarded based on seniority of the following (listed here in no particular order except by which they were copied and pasted from the email):
MIA 757/767
ONT 757/767
ANC 747
ANC MD-11
SDF A-300
SDFZ 757/767 (International)
SDF MD-11
SDF 757 (Domestic)
A note says that not all aircraft types/domiciles may be available for this class.
Given the initial position wish list, it sounds like you're on to something howardhughes8.
