But I had already answered that question No. Does this mean they are still looking for me to put something down? Or do I need to type n/a in the "If yes" text box instead of leaving it blank? A little confused about why they only mentioned that addendum question in the email. I guess I could come up with a sim or early syllabus flight I had to repeat, since they say "any other training event" but I thought this was only referring to check ride type training events?

Those who got that email, how soon until you heard back? Or are they waiting for me to build up a few more hours?

Thanks for any input!

I can’t help with the second part of your question, but as far as your first goes - the general rule is to never leave a box blank on an application. If you have nothing to put in the box, put N/A. I would also go back and recheck your addendum. You may have thought that you clicked “No”, but accidentally clicked “yes”. It’s also possible that you didn’t click anything at all, or your selection didn’t sync for some reason when you saved it. It’s also possible that’s a commonly “forgotten” question and they’re just reminding applicants that it’s mandatory to answer.

FWIW, during my interview they made me take a pen and cross through the “N/A” I had typed and change it to “None.” They told me “N/A” doesn’t answer the question. 😂

In recent months, they’ve had to rescind a few CJOs after the candidate said “no” to that question and then they found out differently during the PRIA phase. So my thinking is they are giving you one last chance/reminder to put anything in there that may show up on PRIA. It is SOO much easier to talk about a disclosed training issue than trying to splain why you didn’t disclose.

Does anyone know when the next class starts? Barry mentioned on a company call that classes were planned at 60 plus starting in August. Does anyone know if that is true? Two classes of 30 or one class of 60 maybe.

According to the chief pilot town hall yesterday, it’s true. I know that many per month had been talked about for awhile, but split up into two classes of 30. However, it doesn’t seem like that will be the case. It sounded like it will be one giant class per month.

Idk. I heard 47 is the capacity of the room and they are going to 47 every three weeks vs a month. So a 25% increase, but I also heard the hotel conference room thing.

I put my app in 12 months ago. I never updated it after that. Never went to an MTC or anything like that. Just got an email saying my application has been selected for review and I'm one step closer to joining the Frontier family. So yes, it is possible. Probably makes more sense to put in the extra effort if you are really interested though.

When filling out the application if you had a checkride failure or two would that prevent getting an email for an interview?

No. Definitely still apply.

You will be asked about them in your interview. Man up, take responsibility and own it. If you try to pass the blame onto anyone other than yourself, you won't get hired.
