Congrats! AFAIK the selection process is up to the HR folks. I was originally told Boeing/Bus class but KD called me later and said my background made me a good fit for the 11. Primarily it seems F18, C17 and recently KC135 folks are getting the nod and folks with previous 11 time. That being said there was a guy in my class who also had 10 (can't remember if it was DC or KC) time who wasn't picked either. There'll probably be another bid in the spring...I'm not sure if you'll be locked in your current equipment or not but if you want to come to the 11 I'd suggest putting in for it.

Cheers,

Gas

I can't even focus on your post with that giant skin tag ad in the middle of it!

Here are a few questions about the questionnaire portion of the application that I've been trying to find, and haven't. Maybe someone can chime in:

#22 Have you ever been a Check Airman?... I provide equipment training and initial and recurrent checkrides in a Part 91 flight organization, but my title is "Instructor Pilot." Should I check "YES"?

Same question... I was a Flight Commander and ADO in UPT squadron and performed multiple progress checks on students who busted checkrides. Should I check "YES" or is that a stretch?

#30 Line Check Airman?... Is this strictly Part 135/121? Or based on my experience above in Part 91, do I qualify. I give checkrides that include Equipment Competency, IPC, and Line Check on the form. Again, my title though is "Instructor Pilot."

#34 Director of Operations?... Is ADO a stretch if I check yes, but explain it underneath as an Assistant Operations Officer?

#35 Duty Officer?... When I read this, I thought of SOC, SUP, or SOF from my military experience. The pilot who sits around and makes sure everything runs smoothly with that days operations either in the squadron or in the tower. Does this sound right, or is there a civilian definition I am missing?

Any help would be appreciated, especially from those who have been in similar Part 91 or Mil backgrounds. What did you do on these questions? Did you get called? Did it come up in the interview?

Thanks.


I disagree. If you were an instructor and gave check rides, you were the equivalent of a check airman. If you were an evaluator and gave check rides to other instructors, you were definitely the equivalent to an LCA. If you gave squadron evaluations and check rides, you were equivalent to Chief Pilot/Fleet Captain. I checked the boxes and wasn't questioned given.

Not sure if this could be related to the training dates for 757/767 changing dramatically during last few days? Just an uneducated guess as to the possible cause...

We seem to be having various and frequent IT issues at Fedex. Don't fret- it ain't you.

By "changing" do you mean they are being pushed back?

They were moved forward (earlier), by many months. The MEM 757/767 bidpacks will not be split after all.
