I had the awesome pleasure of my first red eye this past weekend. We had a trip to Seoul out of Anchorage. Aside from my first trip to Russia, S. Korea, and Japan and me being thrown off, the Red eye is what whipped my butt. I was dying on the flight from PANC-KSLC. Luckily I was able to get a 1 hr nap in on the flight back to ATL. I have no idea how you guys do all those red eyes!!!
Disclaimer...... I was so beat after that friggin flight I can't imagine any correlation with that and morningwood. Just sayin'. Maybe you boys are tougher than me!

Does anyone know if it is advisable to continue updating the airline apps application after receiving a CJO? Follow-up question.... There is some chatter on the "Hiring News" thread that talks about an unwritten interview requirement to have a first class medical that is less than 6 months old (ability to exercise first class privileges). Anyone know if we need to have first class privileges when showing up to class or if we'll be good with a medical that is in months 6-12?

Under 40 a 1st class is good for 12 months. Over, then get one every 6 months.

Why is a first class required through the type ride? Is that just a Delta specific policy or is there an FAR I'm forgetting?

This is what is confusing me....it seems like four or so years ago they changed 61.23(d) to allow you to exercise first class privileges for 12 months for those under the age of 40. Does that extend the duration of the first class medical, or just extend the privileges? It seems that there are several interpretations here. I know at my current airline, if you are under 40, it's good for 12 months, end of story, regardless of type rides, ratings, etc.

I don't recall any FAR even requiring a medical certificate for a type ride, but maybe it's buried somewhere in FAR 121?
