So last week, those of us who were waiting to hear interview results finally got good news about being in the pool. Very excited and happy to hear it. Can't wait to get started. Has there been any updates regarding classes now that the company sim center is open, or does it appear they will be doing as they have done for July and August and do about eight per month?

Congratulations! I got the same email and can't wait to get started!

​​​​Congratulations to all joining the pool. Hopefully when you are in class they will start the next round of interviews. I would love to join you.

As I understand it, they set it up as it's own entity so that they may provide training to anybody and not just Omni pilots. Pretty smart way of doing it I think.
t uses a mix of Omni pilot Sim instructors and contract sim instructors.... which, they currently have a contract Sim instructor job posted open also. It's a good gig if anybody is interested.

I was just there. Omni's name is not on the side, and the company which operates it also has a 320 and I think an Airbus sim in there. Not clear exactly how it works but I'd say it looks likely that it's not exclusively for our use.

Could be a scenario where Omni owns the sim, but leases the sim bay and classroom space from a third party training provider. Not an uncommon setup.

Class Dates??
 
Any updated info as to future class dates for those that were hired recently into the pool? I know there was a class last month and one this month, but I was curious if will they be running classes every month. I heard only 40 were hired, so I'm assuming maybe 4 classes total.

My guess is five classes of eight as it seems the July and August classes were eight each. Would imagine if they are doing a September class, those folks would be notified relatively soon.

Yeah I'd imagine so. I was told they assign classes about a month out. I interviewed during the first week of June so just curious if they might have some sort of order as to assigning class dates, but regardless just happy to have been hired

I interviewed that week as well. From what it sounds like so far, they have been going in order of interview date. But that is just based off of a few emails going around with some other folks that interviewed that week, so take it with a grain of salt.
