The initial pool number was in the 120 range, this grouping is 95 positions, not including the dozen or so guys that started already since the restart. So when we add it all up, yes the pool is virtually empty come 3/27/13. If enough people drop out of the pool, they might even be short a few positions.

My math is pretty close to yours given the variables stated before. Things change, don't be surprised if it happens much sooner!!

Not worth it, unless they already have the days off and nothing better to do. Lots of sitting in an auditorium and listening to lectures.

Not worth it.. They will be bored. They sit in for benefits classes etc. It's only worth it if they want some sim time and are bored IMO

Thanks. I'll pass that on to my wife. I think she'll want to go anyway to take a break from the kids for a couple of days and enjoy a break from the Northeast's cold snap.

My wife loved it! Many others wish they had brought their wives. She had a ton of fun in the Sim! Hope this helps!
