7/11 class for 747 Anybody going?
Hi all, interview went great yesterday and got an offer 6 hours later. I was given a class date of 7/11 on the 74. Anybody here in the class?
To the vets in here, any insight to the program would be great. Any bottlenecks in the 74 program? Any IOE delays?
My background is retired C-5 Instructor Flight Engineer, current Regional FO.
I’m really looking forward to this school and opportunity.
Thanks in advance for any/all info you can share!

When you get your CPATs from them, try to have them completed prior to Day 1. If you do that, you will be set yourself up for success by giving yourself some breathing room during training to learn procedures, flows, and solidify your systems knowledge.
Other than that, welcome aboard.

Definitely going to do all available CBTs prior to day 1, wondering when they may show up. Also wondering how long it takes to get the drug screening info etc.
As I am about to start a local trip, I am realizing I am fairly short on time here at present employer🤣

Every time I ran into them = “They owe me Dinner!”
