I'm sure come 2019 we'll again need everyone we can get so if we are on top of your list there's nothing wrong with applying and see what happens.

More encouragement for the line. I have to say CPZ seems unique in the level of interest that current pilots seem to have in the Hall of Hopefuls. Thanks for that.

How many people here were R-ATP qualified applicants?

How many hours away from meeting minimums were you at when you applied and/or got a phone call?

How long was the wait from submitting the app to getting a phone call?

I was 500 away, went to job fair though. Got offered an interview and CJO next day. I am also a vet and flying a jet though.

When my interview finished a rather large group of MX applicants was waiting outside the door.

Also, 6 months of full training classes is a pretty good backlog. It wouldn't surprise me if the recruiters were turning attention to other workgroups such as MX or FAs.

My friend was in LA just the other day to sign paperwork for his CJO and was told his class date would be in January because at the moment they have classes filled through the rest of the year. He was told that there are a lot of Rotar Transition Program guys that are finishing their fixed wing time now that have been put into the classes for the end of the year which is why the interviews have slowed down. Most of the rotor guys were interviewed months ago and assigned the October-December dates because of the time they needed to complete the training and hours.

Thanks for the update! However it would still be nice to be able to interview “early”. Would be just as nice to get a simple response from someone
