I'm in Indoc right now. ORF and DCA seem to be readily available. Philly might be a little harder to get right out of class.

Nice, how is training going? Hard? Is there anything I should be studying that will make it easier? How are the instructors?

I am in the middle of SIMS right now and everyone that has ORF in our class is holding a line. I am going to DCA 12/1/07 and I am probably going to be not only on reserve but ready reserve so go figure. Indoc will be fine if you don't take it for granted. If you do, it will burn you so fast you won't know what hit you. Same with systems. Really easy if you just do what you are supposed to do. And sims....haha, if you do not know your crap inside and out when you get in there, it will eat you alive. I have been burned two days in a row in that thing and I was solid on all of my stuff before I got in there. Our instructor is good though, he is really sticking it to us. If we are doing good, then he does stuff to stress you out and make you think you are behind or gives you something to make you sweat...but it will help come checkride time. Good Luck to you, and have fun with it.

Since you don't get any company material until your first day, there really isn't a whole lot you can do to prepare. Read the FAR/FC a bit if you want. Otherwise, just enjoy yourself until class. Once you get here, it's all business.

that's great man, you should apply, it's a great job. Your choice of teams to root for leaves much to be desired, but atleast you can pick an airline.

Quick question, is there ground school on the weekends?
