Anybody going to the September ATP-CTP course and classing up afterwards? Trying to figure out if they're going to send out some kind of informational packet or study guidance... Any advice from current pilots would be greatly appreciated. Can't wait to get started!

Just know the limitations for class. Idk what the deal in with the new ctp course, if you get anything, expect it like a week before you are to arrive, that's the typical fashion for things here.

What we can do is fly the lift that's needed for the airlines that are unable because they can't afford to attract and maintain the pilots they need because of their crappy pay and working conditions.

Time will certainly tell.

The company will give you all the info you need when you arrive...and tell you what to study.. Don't try to guess what you should study.. Let us tell you...it will save headaches.

In addition to passing the CTP course...you will be expected to study concurrently for the ATP written... So bring a positive attitude and your best focus... We'll help you with the rest.

Welcome!

I heard expect an announcement about ipads and apparently the delta deal is still a possibility.

Lol good one. They're spewing that to the guys in ATW right now I think just to keep them excited. I was told every airline is approaching us with offers. Our company culture are way too opposites IMO to ever strike a deal with them.

We shall see. I guess the jepps are officially done first of the year so we'll see.

I've heard about the jepps, and I've heard from a few people probably hear something around October. If we get iPads, you can't do that right in the last minute in December. Gotta let some of the old guys figure this stuff out for a little bit.

That's not far fetched at all. Look at the timing of everything. A couple Friday's ago you have RAH, publicly, state they are completely F'd and are reducing a lot of flights between all three partners. Stock tanks and I truly believe they are seeing the beginning of the end.

Now what happens, outside of any scheduled negotiating session, the following Monday? We now have a TA.

It's very clear they are lining something up. Delta would be the most likely player. Gonna get interesting around here again.

That's not a bad point. I guess I just didn't see delta giving us an offer that the owners would go for, something with "proper wording" that they didn't care for like last time.
