Not always understaffed.

73B is in the 6-9 required, 30+ available zone right now…think there has been 2 greenies the entire month so far.

Live in base to make more money. If you live in NY or LA, choose the one with the uniform you like most.

Good luck, I submitted all my PRIA docs on September 13th, still no indoc date yet, same goes for most everyone in my CJO group, can't speak for all as I'm not in comms with them all.

No news is good news, so I’m told [emoji2371]

Should have said was. And as everything starts shifting again with hiring, will probably be again soon.

i highly recommend contacting the 3rd party background check company.

Buddy of mine was waiting weeks as well…called them and found out the checks were done but apparently were never forwarded to Delta. They “fixed the glitch” while on the phone….he got Indoc invite from delta that very afternoon.

Best of luck to you!

Partially true.

One year at DL one of the highest paid pilots was a NYC 88B who made close to half a million. He commuted (from the midwest) and did a normal line's worth of flying a month.

LCA buddy bid, drop most or all of the month for full pay, GS 3 or 4 normal trips = triple pay.

There are other ways to game it and some of the 350 millionaires are commuters. You can even roll thunder on reserve as a commuter and even as a somewhat junior commuter to reserve by back loading the thunder instead of front loading it.

Commuting is extremely doable and the angst is 90% psychological and self imposed.

Just got the invite for the new cog assessment last night. I am using RST, or at least I just started using it last night. Is there any way to gauge how well you're doing and when you're ready for the actual assessment?

Can you elaborate on the thunder please.

When you GS on reserve you are paid straight pay above guarantee and you get you day off back. True rolling thunder is when you bid all of your reserve days in the last half of the month. In the beginning of the month you get GS1. You days off are now returned to you on your first batch of reserve days. Then you get GS2 and again your reserve days are pushed back. As long as you keep GSing before you get to you let reserve days it keeps going on and on getting paid above guarantee hence “rolling thunder” bc you keep rolling your days off over your reserve days to keep getting paid above guarantee.
