Just read VA is delaying AC deliveries from 12 to 4 thru 2012.....reality of $108.00 dollar oil is hear....hope my assessment I just took stays current, I don't want to have take that again..

0y vey.....110.00

$110.24 this evening, approaching July 2008 numbers, we all know what happened then....at least we're making a bundle (ENPIX) on it.

Umm, not quite new news. At the July 2010 "All Hands" meeting we were told of only 4 firm deliveries for 2012. There were options of up to a total of 12 aircraft for delivery in 2012, but there no decision on exercising those additional options. This was reaffirmed in the January 2011 "All Hands" meeting, and once again in March.

Well, there go those Capt. upgrades everyone was counting on. That's the funny thing about orders/options. You never really know until the aircraft is on the ramp AND the maintenance logs are inside.

Until then its all just wishing. I remember when jetBlue was telling their pilots and the press that they would have 200 jets in 5 years. Oops.

That's why it was amusing when the VXers all got excited about the 80 prospective orders Sir Dick announced.

Keep dreaming, boys.

Lol, don't do it Nedude!!!!

Fish doing what he does best. The prognosticator of the obvious when it comes to the price of a barrel of oil and how it affects business. Duh!!!!!! Please Fish, say something remotely intelligent that doesn't lean on your same old threads.

Help! I finally received the email today to take the assessment. I applied last Summer and have been updating monthly since then. The instructions in the email say it will take approx 45 mins, and to plan accordingly for no distractions while taking it. I've reviewed all the threads on APC regarding VX and the assessment, and there seems to have been several different versions. As the above poster asked a few days ago, has anyone taken it recently in the past few months? Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!

I just logged on to the Virgin website and noticed the pilot app is up again

I applied to it or submitted my profile again, and it immediately wanted me to take this assessment, anyone made it through that yet? you get 3 minutes to answer a question and its like a pick the best answer based on the above references. anyone else do that?

I took the assessment and it was just like that. The email instructions said it would take approx 45 mins. It took me a lot longer then that. I was not sure how I did, and then after the math part another section popped up with 200+ personality/situation type questions. I'm wondering if it is set up and scored in such a way that you need to get a certain number of the math questions correct in order to continue on to the personality section because I don't see how it's possible to do all of it in just 45 mins. Anyone else know or care to share?
