Maiden does rule! I hope they make it down here to Texas in the near future. I missed them the last time they came through.

Hey all, I just got the bad FedEx a little while ago. I interviewed on June 16th.
For those of you still waiting to hear, I think if you make it through today with no FedEx, that is good news.
No telling what shot me down. I had some negative factors, no doubt. Lack of currency (about 18 months), 737 type from HPA, and NJA furloughee. Could have bombed one of the interviews as well, although I thought they all went great. Who knows how they weight things in the final tally.
Final stats for all interested:
Applied 3/25.
Phone Interview 5/30
Technical Assessment 6/1 (88)
Interview 6/16
TT 3500
PIC Turbine 1100 (C-5)
IP 75 (C-5)
Types: B737, CE-750, BE400/MU300, A320 (SIC)
Good luck to everyone trying to get on at Atlas! Good things are happening.

My contact said there were just over 80 people in the pool as of two weeks ago, and they were planning a class a month for the next two years. That number wouldn't include anyone from this month's interviews, either. ... But, as we all know, everything is subject to change, and rumors will fly.
Heard today that there'll be 133 retiring in the next 3 years. Told that the FOs that were hired a year ago could very well be upgrading to Capt within 3-5 years.
A bunch of the higher-ups briefly said hi today. But, the VP of Flt Ops is supposed to drop by for some Q&A time with our class soon. I'll try to share some of his "rumors" afterwards.

Do the retirement numbers count the over 65 FE's (which I believe is most of the FE's) who will be forced to depart when the classics go away?

My numbers were just off the pilot list. There was a class in 08 of upgrading FEs but they're counted on the pilot list now. Those guys only had a few years to go and make up the 2 or 3 retiring both this year and next.

Sorry to hear that cupid. To be honest, I wouldn't get too wrapped up with the long haul experience. I have plenty of long haul flying with the military and got shot down as well. So far, every regional guy in my interview group has gotten pool letters. All great dudes and they deserve it, just pointing out that long haul experience is not required.
