If we are able to keep the DAL slots I suspect it will be very quick. Note the 717 bid packet change last week.

Some time ago someone posted a nice spreadsheet on interview dates and class drops. I can't seem to find it.

Anyone have a link to it?

It is not current. Best guess is 4-8 weeks from CJO to class start date.

It's hasn't been updated, but here it is.

8 weeks exactly, from CJO to class start for me.

Invite received 30 Jun. Interviewed 11 Sep, and called for the 10 Nov class. About two months later. Rumored to be 75 people in that class.

Sept 25 interview, same class. Sounds like it's going to be healthy.

I imagine there will be a decent amount of flows so that's why the class size seems high, but I am not 100% sure.

The last group of flows for the year are already in class.

Not a rumor, the training department is definitely prepping for a 75 person class. I think the next 3 classes are 40, 50, and 75 respectively. Not sure if they're having such a big class because of the holiday or of that will just be the new normal.

Right now the LIMFAC for new guy training is the simulator. They just added an E-period to the schedules (2220 brief for a 2350-0350 sim), so unless training gets access to more simulators, they're pretty much maxxed out in capability. I was impressed how they keep so many moving parts moving fairly smoothly, that has to be a logistical nightmare.
