"that has it up to almost 116,000 views"

Yeah, it's kinda freaky. Must be some sort of record.

Good News is fun to tell!

I don't know when but the test will be changing. I ran into a Captain friend of mine in the crew room who said they had brought him in to write some new questions. This was a couple weeks ago. I think if you know the subject matter and how to answer the current questions you would be fine. Although, he does have a Masters in Aeronautical Engineering.:D

Definitely the biggest thread ever on the APC forums in our short 2.5 year history...

Just a hunch, but a lot of those new hires will be able to bid off the 88 NYC in February when the next AE is published. :)

That is the exact reason that a lot of new hires are going to be headed to the 88 in NYC. Yes, they can bid off at the AE. Nevertheless, those positions need to be filled and will just result in more people being sent to the 88 in NYC. My class had 19 88 NYC positions and many bid off during our second week of indoc. While one may bid off the 88 at the first AE, that person will still likely spend 3 - 4 months in NYC before going to training or getting sent to a different 88 base.

My guess is that that there will either be several classes with 18 or 19 NYC 88 spots between now and FEB, or one class soon will all or mostly all get 88 NYC.

The last clas got 100% NYC ER, and it was my understanding that the Dec class will get the same. Anybody think it has changed?

Don't worry about it.

You won't know until the 3rd, no matter what anyone has to say here. Not trying to bring you down...but if you get incorrect information here you will be more disappointed than anything else.

Enjoy indoc, welcome to Delta. Don't sweat the small stuff...as long as we continue to hire behind your class...you'll end up where you want to within the year.

Thanks, you are absolutely correct.

I got a call from Brian for a Jan 7th class. He said it would be "a variety of airplanes and a variety of bases" but he didn't have specifics. He implied as it got closer it might get more concrete, but he didn't know at the time that we spoke.
