767-300's continue for another 10-15 years
717's getting seat back screens

Is that good for us with an interview in the 4Q?

I'm more thinking about how our leverage keeps increasing for our contract.

I was told by someone who definitely would know the info that 125 was not a problem. When the indoc classes feed 5 airplanes for initial training (A220, 717, 737, 320, M88 (for a while) and 7ER) they can do 125 no problem. The limits are simulator and LCA throughput. If it's spread among many fleets, it's easier.

Is there a consensus on which prep service is the best for Delta Air Lines? I did a quick search on the forum and the results I found mentioned Aero Crew Solutions, Centerline, Emerald Coast... but all the info was years old. I understand I should use RST for the tech portion.

I am an Emerald Coast member, so I can go back through their course fairly quickly at no additional cost, but I'm not against spending a bit of $$ if another service is "the way to go".

One more thing... how accurate is the info I hear about "blue suit, red tie"? Does it matter at all, or can I use my black suit I've worn maybe 4 times..?

Thanks folks.
I am also looking feedback with this. Does a certain interview prep work better than another? Would Emerald Coast suffice? what exactly is RST? is that what one should use for the written?
someone also said to use RST to view the ride reports, what exactly is that?
For someone (me) with absolutely no background or information on the delta interview any advise and assistance would be appreciated.

Looking for feedback on anyone that has had a Delta pilot submit their application through Pilot Selection in the the last 45-60 days. How long did it take to hear back that you got the invite to interview? Any feedback would be great as I am still waiting to hear. Thanks.

Use Checked and Set for app review

Emerald Coast for HR interview prep

RST for cog/job knowledge test prep

The only leverage is in your mind. Delta is doing better and has a better culture than all the other airlines. There won't be a shortage of applicants here.

If it means anything, I had an internal submitted three and a half weeks ago. Still haven't heard anything.

Good luck though!

Remember, the internal only gets your app scored within 30 days. Then, if you score high enough, you are out in the pile “to offer an interview”. That could be a week, could be 6 months.

These days, With hiring supposedly ramping up, I wouldn’t think it would take 6 months, but I wouldn’t bat an eye before 6 weeks absolute minimum. A couple months is a reasonable guess to wait for the call, I would say.

Good luck.
