Sounds like Cotzer just volunteered to carry the torch for a while! Pass the keys Mike.

From my own experience and other posts here, it sounds like many 2013 interviews have not yet received the "Cleared to train" email. Any speculation as to why people may be receiving this email out of interview order? Been almost 3 months now for some of us... how long can a PRIA check take?

No kidding! Cotzer, I can't remember if you were before or after me, but if you or anyone else with excel or mac numbers (current file) wants to be at the tip of the information spear for the rest of your days, shoot me a message.

You're coming in broken, barely readable. Confirm cleared cruise climb, descend at my discretion, cleared approach...will switch to advisory frequency and call to cancel?

Indoc will take two weeks and you will have the weekends off. Your indoc instructor is a great person and will guide you through everything you need to know about Delta.

In the first couple of days you will know your aircraft assignment and base. During indoc not much goes on after class. I strongly suggest you get together with your training partner and go to the procedures trainer and start looking at everything in the books. Go over flows, call outs, profiles and emergency procedures so you come to training prepared.

If you have any questions send me a PM or email. The most important thing to bring is a positive attitude. It makes all the difference.

All true but I think you have to wait til the end of indoc before they will issue aircraft specific manuals. They want you to focus on the company and not your new airplane.

True, but if you can get a copy of the LOD and start reading it. You will be well ahead of the game. Once you get your books. Practice the ESV test on the computer and continue you LOD review. Start learning Flows and callouts. You will be great for day 1.
