Mine was almost identical. Solid peeps. No funny bidness. My interview group wasn’t as solid as yours. I think less than half made it through. This was over a year ago. Ditto Connie interview. Thanks for posting and congrats if you took it.

To be technical, Endeavor Air has preferential hiring with DAL interview & hiring, while other DAL regionals represented by Alpa have preferential interviews.

It’s a great place to be. That said, you have to work for it. Study, study, study. I’ve seen guys dropped before ever getting to the full motion sims. The fixed base sim is when it notches up and starts putting it all together. If you haven’t built a solid base before getting there, catching up is extremely hard to do.
Memory Items
Limitations
Profiles, Profiles, Profiles & Profiles

Take it serious and study hard, the instructors are some of the best around and will gladly help in any way possible. They want you to succeed.

Suggested Get list:
International power adapter
8.5 x 11 clipboard
Calculator
Flashlight (the new Tac lights are great)
iPad with GoodReader app to use for manuals
Company required windows laptop (widescreen is better for the Aerosim program, but a notebook size works too)
Skinny thermos (for coffee/tea drinkers)
T-Mobile phone service is used by most.
3 ring binder with hole punch for the multiple handouts in class.

The training hotel will have a mini kitchen and you can use a crew car for a nearby super Walmart. The training hotel has a CPT for both the 767 & 777 in the crew room.

Scheduling is done on the AIMS system. There are apps for phones and tablets to make it less painless.

You won’t need your own headset on the 767. There are telex 750’s there and they come off at FL180 anyway. No intercom anyway.

Kitbags seem to be either a rolling small catalog sized bag, a real 8x18 kitbag, a backpack or a newer laptop style bag. I like the backpack type since it can be used for walking around exploring on the common 2-5 day layovers. Timbuktu makes a nice one that does double duty. It’s a laptop bag, that has hidden shoulder straps making it a backpack. The backpack also,lets you keep an extra set of clothes handy in the event your roll aboard gets checked and temporarily lost.

Pilots do get KCM for in the states and have jumpseat agreements with just about everybody. No uniform hats, and the jackets are either the pilot leather or black north face styled zip up.

Study study study.... and welcome aboard !!!

He is correct. Those are not flow-thru programs.

Did they say when the next few class dates might be? I assume early December and early January?

Early Jan at the soonest for the next class. The training department for the most part shuts down in December.

Calls are going out today for early Jan. 777 and late Jan. 767 slots for guys who interviewed early Nov, if that helps you get a sense of the timing.

Forget AA if you want to be a CA at a major; go to a DAL regional with flow thru, and you'll hold CA on 717/MD80/320 within 18 months if you go to NYC.
Envoy (AAEagle), Piedmont and PSA, all owned by AA, are the only three regionals that I have heard of that have direct flow through...to American.

UAL/LH has a program for CFIs: Get hired by LH/UAL, fly as an instructor for the LH cadet school in AZ, when you reach ATP mins, and other UAL requirements, go direct to UAL (bypassing regionals) for 5 years on narrowbody aircraft, and then you can bid normally...
