So have the 6 that haven't started OE been sitting at home since October?

I was out the beginning of January watching a guy get OE who finished class in December. And then again towards the end of January with another guy who finished Miami in December. Both said all those senior to them were called but for some reason were unavailable.

For the 747, how long should you plan on training taking? I have heard 8 to 9 weeks throughout this forum. But is 8 weeks reasonable to expect? If you needed 3 days off during the beginning of week 9 would this be possible? I'm guessing that would be right before your final checkride and rather difficult.

Get your resumes polished, I think we will have a fecal matter show on our hands in short order.

I was Oct 12 - Dec 18. In my class there were a few that stayed longer. You could ask for specific days, but you'll find yourself messing up the puzzle if it wasn't an original scheduled day off. I left MIA on Dec 18 and have been in San Diego waiting OE. It's Feb and I don't see it this month. So I'm learning to sail, reading a Tony Robbins book on finances and finding ways to pay $2000 mortgage on a 1600 salary. It's exciting. I just cant' wait to get my pee pee slapped when I say "positive rate" on takeoff. You may want to lurk in ANC and get picked up for OE that way. My inexperienced two cents. Good Luck!

I pray this rumor about the meeting earlier today isn't true or half the list will be out of here ASAP.

What might that rumor be? Is this the meeting between Flynn and local?

I'm in the dark here. Maybe it's better that way

Yes. Email coming tomorrow.

Just know with whatever goes down, it's Union Busting 101. They're hoping we trip all over ourselves in fear. Don't buy into it. Stay the course.
