Oh - and I would assume that in starting the next classes they've got things better planned to avoid the gaps in training that they've been experiencing lately due to lack of instructors.

Quick question, this may have been asked already, but I am to lazy to dig through this thread. I was called by pinnacle and told that I will need to re take my ATP written before I can interview. I am a bit confused because I am a current Comair Fo, so my written is good.

I'm thinking that HR doesn't know Part 61/121 regs...I would let them know about your status at Comair...be ready jump through a few hoops though. Sorry to hear about that

Actually your written is only good if your current employer is doing your upgrade training. If you are going to upgrade to Capt at Comair it will still be good if not..well looks like a retake.

14 CFR 61.39

(a) Except as provided in paragraphs (b) and (c) of this section, to be eligible for a practical test for a certificate or rating issued under this part, an applicant must:
(1) Pass the required knowledge test within the 24-calendar-month period preceding the month the applicant completes the practical test, if a knowledge test is required;


(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a)(1) and (2) of this section, an applicant for an airline transport pilot certificate or an additional rating to an airline transport certificate may take the practical test for that certificate or rating with an expired knowledge test report, provided that the applicant:
(1) Is employed as a flight crewmember by a certificate holder under part 121, 125, or 135 of this chapter at the time of the practical test and has satisfactorily accomplished that operator's approved--
(i) Pilot in command aircraft qualification training program that is appropriate to the certificate and rating sought; and
(ii) Qualification training requirements appropriate to the certificate and rating sought; or


I stand corrected. The knowledge test DOES expire. However, one may take the practical test with an expired knowledge test provided they comply with 61.39 (b)(1) or (b)(2).

Hi!

It doesn't matter what the FAA says. Most companies require the written within ____ of the class date....I think ususally 12 months. It is just like loggin PIC. What the FAA allows and what the airlines except are two different things. Many airlines require a number of requirements, sometimes odd ones. If you want a job, do what they say/require.

While I agree with what's been said about the ATP written, I just want to 2nd the fact that their HR department (I believe all) are completely brand new and have no experience in aviation. Before re-taking a written for an interview I'd try to get in touch with someone in the flight dept to verify...
