Well, I just got a phone call from ST, my class has been pushed back another month. Anybody else?

He said the reason was they canceled a few Saab classes.

I'm not sure if I can make it 5 months on unemployment.

Hiring is slowing down significantly right now. You guys that are waiting for class to start will get there. Be happy you got hired. I think only 1-2% of people that applied got hired.

Ok, that argument really doesn't work anymore.

Yes, I am happy, I was really happy, now I'm more frustrated. Class has been pushed back twice! Money and sanity can only last so long. The skepticism is returning and that gut feeling that my class will be canceled by the time March rolls around is creeping upwards. Life at Comair has taught me some very hard lessons about the airline biz. Still mostly happy , but not feeling so lucky anymore.

I think they are just short on instructors also, my PC was delayed ... though more likely due to being short on PNFs too.

I love working here ... I feel blessed that I came here a year ago and not somewhere else. Looking forward to seeing you all around.

Anyone know when the 36th 900 is showing ... did they delay it to keep us from getting our raise too early?? ;-)

we could have 100 900's right now and the raise would be the same.

New Vacancy Bid is out. 12 new hires, CRJ-900. 2 new hire Saab. 24 upgrades, CR9, 10 upgrade Saab.

Looks like MSP has 12 vacancies for the CR9, FO. I hope some current DTW FOs bid MSP so I have less people above me (I'm DTW based).
