Seems to be about a month between CJOs and class dates. You'll probably get a call next week for an Oct class date. Congrats!

new hire awards
Seeing if anyone out there is tracking the latest new hire class drops. Back when folks were pooled, somebody kept a spreadsheet and it was fairly easy to see what guys were getting. Crew resources is somewhat (purposefully IMO) vague when poked about it. It would be nice to know as people try to strategize about their next AE bid or just to know how their seniority might be getting better.

[QUOTE=Sputnik;1721168]You need to get 100hrs within 120 days of your sim check for the check/type to be valid. You'll get 35 minimum during your IOE (flying with a Check Airman after your sim check). So basic flow is: sim check, 2-3 day observation trip in the jumpseat, then 5-6 days of IOE trips with the last day being your line check.
Until you get that 100hrs, I believe you're prioritized for reserve callout. It happened so quickly I didn't have time to research that whole shebang.

Good info, thanks

No priority for reserve call out. The Reserve Utilization Order (RUO) remains unchanged.

Hmm, is my thinking backwards then? The reason I'm considering a commute is my daughter just started high school this year. Due to military moves, she saw 4 different schools by the time she hit 7th grade and I just want some stability in her life. Do you think one more move is worth the trade off of more time at home vs. being the new kid one more time? I know there is no right answer, but I wouldn't mind hearing from those who have been there.

Aircraft preference question:
ASSUMING I have a choice....717, 737NG, or 320 to ATL? I live just under 3 hours from ATL and my priorities are stability and home time vs dollars.
How long are guys sitting reserve on the NG & bus before holding a line, and will that time be increased on the NG by the 757 displacements? I don't know much about the 320, but I assume "better" trips vs the 717. I like the idea of BHM overnights in the 717, but it's a pretty substantial pay bump to the other aircraft. I just don't want to sit reserve for a year to get it.
I saw part of this question asked earlier, so I apologize for the repeat.
