Thanks to NORESTER from fi.com for this below info. I copied it and am posting it here. Thanks Normy for the additional info.

Here's that update from April 19/20 interviews. Assumptions are that everyone up to March 14/15 is out of the pool. If anyone has conflicting data please post.

Looks like the remainder of the March poolies will get called for the November Class, and the April and May folks could get the two classes in Dec.


February
28 Feb - 10 (from a reservist who got called)

March

1/2 – 9 (3) = 6 (jets96)
7/8 - 10 (2) = 8 (Bullschwantz)
14/15 – 11? (2) = 9 (Phaedrus) Looks like all up to here called for 23 Oct
15/16 – 5 (1) = 10 (Don’tBHate’n)
At least 4 poolies from 15/16 Mar called leaving 6 in the pool (Don'tBHate'n)
19/20 - 10 (1) = 9 cjj
29-30 – 10 (1) = 9 (wmss)
Mar poolies remaining- 25 confirmed

April

5/6 - 5 (1) = 4 (Gummo)
11/12 - 5 (2) = 3 (DiamondZ)
12/13 – 1 confirmed; possibly 4 more (FlyFedEx)

Apr poolies - now 32confirmed, 9 unconfirmed

May

2/3 – 5 (0) = 5 (Hagar17)
16/17 - 5 (0) = 5 (geauxfly)
18/19 - 5 (0) = 4 (other one unknown -- missed the inputter)
24/25 - 4 (0) = 4 (airfish)
30/31 - 6 (0) = 3 and not sure of other 3 (wannabrich)
May poolies - approx 24

Update
 
JDriver....thanks for transferring the information. I was trying to resist my FI/APC crack habit (and watch LSU toss away a great opportunity). I know of one guy who got called from the 19/20 Mar interview group for the 30 Oct class. They have been very true to the FIFO process so I consider everyone prior to that to have gotten calls (they may have deferred classes but at least they got a call). I've heard (or seen, can't remember) that there are 22 in the 30 Oct class with a mix of FO/SO slots. Rumor still has pool drained by Christmas.

I hope the rumor is true. The way I see it is that the only way for that to happen is for the class size to increase significantly. Anyone see it differently?

Does anyone have any class size data for the December Classes?

Does anyone know if 30 OCT took care of all March pool people?
Remaining new hire class dates?

I interviewed Apr 18-19 drug tested last week. In my group of 6(5 in the other) 4 onboard already MD11

hmmm.. Somebody is not reading the thread.. :o

Irish, all the info we have is in the last 80+ messages, plus the other forum thread of 280+ messages. We are all just having fun guessing. Welcome to the game.:D

My "guess" would be that the pool is close to being empty. I have a buddy that was asked to come into MEM for a week in Nov to interview applicants.

Yo WannaB take it easy on the Irish dude. One post, he must be new. Combine that with the Irish name, he probably is doing the best he can.

Does any one have any idea on the number of classes that are scheduled for November?... and no I don't have time to read a zillion post to try dig the info up. I have a bullet train to Tokyo to catch.

Yo Irish -- what's the background? I knew a guy in my USAF sq with c/s "Irish."

Just hope your first name isn't Phil. That wouldn't do at Fedex.:D

Thanks
 
Irish....thanks for the update....that removes some of the uncertainty in that date, so 11 minus the 4 for the widebody puts 7 in the pool from there. That makes 81 confirmed in the pool and 4 unconfirmed from 12/13 April, 3 unconfirmed from 30/31 May and 6 from 11/12 Sep. As far as March goes, only know of 1 confirmed call for 19/20 Mar group so that leaves 17 poolies for March worst case scenario.

R1200RT,
Rumors have one class in November (best guess is 27 Nov) and two classes in Dec (4 Dec and ???). Hope the info helps.
