OTS interviewing restarting August 18th.

Last recallee estimated to be in the late September class. Three (?) January poolies left and the all the February poolies still waiting. Poolie might start in late September or early October depending upon how many recallees are in the second September class.

Based on the pool size, and previous interview to class date lag time, new OTS training might restart in late October or early November??

Regardless of the exact timing it's restarting which is the good news.

DCA recently has had some movement on the AA side. Junior guy took about 10 months to get DCA. Currently only 737. LUS is Airbus. Post SLI it will probably be both.

If you're on the north or east side of DCA PHL is a bigger base and has more variety in both equipment and types of flying.

Do you know who sends the email? Is it aapilotsuport or a total different email. Want to make sure I have my spam set up so it doesn't go there

Sliceback that is good info. We still have Feb poolies? Hmm that seems crazy. I know my buddy interviewed end of Jan and got into training. They must have stopped right after his class. Either way it's good to see the OTS movement starting again.

I can verify the re-start of OTS interviewing. Passed the video in January, and I had a Feb interview date which I had to decline due to a military reserve commitment. Yesterday I was invited back for the final 2-day. Looks like first available OTS date was 17 Aug.
Good luck all !

Three from Jan didn't get training dates so I'm assuming none of the Feb interviewees are onboard. Eight month lag between interview and class for them?? Dec/Jan I think the interview to class date lag was 2(+/-) months. One guy went in seven weeks!

OTS hiring is good news for everyone.

Great news for us on the bottom. The Jan guys might not been able to make class, not sure. I had to delay a little before I started.

I'm helping one who was ready and willing to start. No training slot so they'll start this fall.
