class dates

Any word on when the next available class dates are? Are they still hiring for late 2018 or are confirmed class dates only being given out for 2019?

They are back to regular capacity at around 50-60 a month spread out over two classes.

I thought that I had heard it was 4 smaller classes a month now. Or that it was in the works to do that, to smooth the scheduling issues

That was the case, I'm not sure why or what happened to change it in first place let alone why it returned to high volume. Right now there is minimal delays unless your 200. But that is being caused by an OE problem. Last I heard there is around 50 people waiting for OE at 5-7 weeks after LOE.

Just started OE after 50 days off between the LOE on the 200.

900 training is fast. I was done with OE in under 3 months.

Sounds about right - 200 delays are the result of the perfect storm of a
smaller fleet with less OE captains, less routes and they are shorter so OE takes longer. There is people who were hired in January still waiting to touch a plane.
