That would be nice, not that I need to worry about it for another few years.

I hope it's MCI, but only because I live in TUL. I'm in the pool, so I have some time decide what would be the best commuting option for me. I know DAL is very senior, so I'm thinking HOU or MDW.

Any input would be appreciated.

Don't commute! With now 7 and soon 8 bases to choose from... pick one to live in. ;)

Is there any new word on if/when a new pilot base will be announced and what that base may be?

How Long?

This may be a bit off topic, but SWA just called me for an interview for next month. How long have you been in the hiring pool, 328? Is the wait going to change any in the near future?

Thanks,

Dave.

Dave:

I've only been in the pool since the end of August, so not to long. Seems like the class schedule keeps changing and the PD is not real sure what the current status is of future class dates. Hopefully not to much longer.

Good luck on your interview.

When?
 
Dave.. When you headed down? I have one coming up too.

xjtnj 09-16-2006 08:04 PM

328.. Let us know what date you get for class. Hey.. did you have your type prior to going? (Figured I would ask)

I haven't scheduled it yet.

For what it's worth, I know one guy hired without a 73 type rating and both my friend and I were called for interviews w/o the type rating.

Good luck to you.

Dave

I certainly will. I had the type since 2004 (HPA) and finally got called last month for the interview. The PD schedule's class dates by your interview date so keep that in mind when you schedule them.
