Hey guys. Just wondering why? I am just getting online now and have not heard anything about this stuff. I do know a friend that did his week in MSP before X mas and had his Montreal start date pushed back from Dec to end of the first week of Jan. Is this all just a trickle down from that?

"Due to an overwhelming success rate of new pilots, there is an overage of pilots to planes at this point in time; to address this issue, so we don't have a long delay in getting our pilots trained and in planes, we are delaying some of the training classes."

They told me (due to an overwhelming....) and because of the holidays and they expected to have two more planes by now. I'm just ready to get started. My start date was 14th Dec. Now Jan 18th. I hope they don't have to change it again.

Delayed classes

I think the other reason for slowing is the fact that NO one is reaching consolidation right now. We are all getting line checks to extend us for an additonal month. I have been on property since June and still haven't reached my consolidation. Should this next month, but the truth is they are definately FAT on pilots right now.
Of course we can blame it on age 65 too right

Thanks for the list of over nights. Any rumors of over nights in Mexico or Bahamas,when everything gets rolling? The Compass page on this site says pay raises every Jun. 08-2012. Can anyone with a contract say if there is a change for first year FO's and 2nd year CA's?
