How are airframes awarded to new hires? Does FX assign it to you or can you pick? A buddy in pool wants to be on the 75 for seniority progression...

you rank order based off what’s available prior to BI. Then it’s awarded based off your last 4 of SSN...descending order. For instance 9999 picks first. 0000 picks last (I think that’s how it’s still done). Most will pick this way. However some will attend a day early if “selected” for MDs or an FDA.

Thanks for the info.

What are the chances of getting 757 for the plug in class?

Decent chance... most regular (non HKG) classes over the last few years have had a fair amount of 75s to go around, but I do remember having some buddies in recent classes that had so many 77 and 76 in their drops that the class plug got something other than a 75 fwiw

I’ll snag this post from one page back:

The classes that we know about:

March - 8 HKG 76F
April - 10 HKG 76F
May - 14 MEM 75F”

I’d say that the chances of getting the 757 for the plug in the May class is “Strong to Very Strong.”

No more new hires on the MD, so just the FDA guys show up a day early.

This will be on the cognitive test. Choose wisely and you will be added to the pool.

Sorry. Bored in crash pad. Hope that helped.
