Which old DC's do you have? I've been using a pair of old DC's since I got hired here, and no one bats an eye. I'm not sure if mine are TSO'd, but I think they are.

I used my old DC h10 13's most of the time there and they worked great. I eventually switched to the Bose QC15's those rocked and a lot of captains I flew with liked them as well.

How long did it take you to get an interview after you applied?

Thats good to hear. I have the h10 13's too. Do you do the QC15's with the uflymike? thats actually the route I'd like to go, I just wasn't sure they'd allow it. Thanks for the info!

about 5 weeks, but I applied just before Christmas, so that may have had something to do with it...

I used the OC Uflymike combo a lot of people did as well. There's one caveat to the bose combo I didn't TSO my headset and QX requires TSO'd headsets. Most people just took the chance and never cared I did the same.

Howdy QX Guys & Gals,

I'm in the 3/2 class and have some questions about how reserve works since I've been out of the gamut for a while. How long is the callout time and are there Short and Long Call shifts?

What do the typical reserve lines look like as far as days on and off per week?

Thanks in advance!

13 days off in a 35 day bid period.

Long call used to exist, but I haven't seen them use it in over 2 years. It was a 10 hour callout.

Short call is 90 minute callout in GEG/BOI/MFR, and 2 hours in SEA/PDX. I don't know about ANC. I'd assume 90 minutes.

Does anyone that has interviewed recently know what class dates they are offering?
