I think the age factor is a non-issue. I personally know pilots that were hired in their mid-twenties and I have met new-hires in their 50's.

The company will pay a checked bag fee so it gets checked if I don't have status on the airline I'm riding. I plan on doing laundry somewhere if I'm out for the full 17 days.

The -8 has an EFB but we're still using paper charts officially. Skype works for me but there are some issues with it in Dubai. There are some work arounds, I don't make that many calls back.

The Galaxy Tabs are being rolled out slowly, it'll be several more months I think before everyone has one.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! Don't tell him about the Gucci's...!!

Are new hires getting PIC type ratings? I saw somewhere that when the captain is on their rest break someone in the flight deck has to have the PIC rating. I was just curious. Once again thank you to all who help keep us informed!

Anybody in the July 23rd class know what is going on for our class? All they told me was, "We are Fedexing drug test info to you, complete it, fill it out, fax it back, and good luck on the 23rd." No mention of where we are staying or what the training schedule will be like. I dont even know what time to show up for training on the 23rd... I did call back but the HR guy I spoke with didnt know. It was rather vague, anyone get any more than this out of HR?

Brittney (spelling?) told me that once we took the drug test and had the results sent in we would be getting an email explaining more. She was going to be out of the office until Thursday. I wouldn't expect anything until then. Did you get the 747 too? Is there any 767 guys in that class out there? Can't wait to start!!

U will get more info....not to worry.

The normal daily start time is 0800. There are shuttles from the Marriott complex...I think they leave at 0720 and 0740. Our class always took the 0720 or drove/rode with someone.

There's a grocery store within walking distance of the hotel, a bunch of restaurants, etc.

Work together, help each other out, and study. If you do that, everyone in the class will make it through training.

PM me if you have other questions.
