Didn't matter if you were a narrowbody guy flying 4 legs a day, everyone went on the 9 month cycle. Although we have to go to "the building" more often, the pace is slower than it was when we just went annually for a PC as they don't have to cram as much in per day.
We'll see if Jefferey can convince the POI that once every 12 months is enough. May depend on which POI becomes the MFWIC after combined Ops start.

After being on the 9mos PC/PT cycle I am kind of use to it and would hate to se it go. Even though we go every 9mos, the pace is slower at the schoolhouse but I am starting to notice the feds are asking more and more during these training events.
