How confident are you that the EMB March class is canceled? I'm interviewing on Tuesday in SLC and would have liked to have been in that March class. I'm sure I'll find out on Tuesday what the scoop really is on this.

Just be sure that we are the first to know :D

Ok here is the official scoop. On the Jet we have the current class and the one coming up. After that there will be no classes in April, May, or June. The Bro will be about th same. This is how it is for now. Staffing levels are back up where they want them and they don't want over staffing. That being said don't be surprised for something to come up and have the flood gates reopened for several months at a moments notice. If they keep interviewing and fill the pool I would not let this keep you from applying. As for right now we are in wait and see mode.

how do you know this?... Not doubting you. I thought they hired a ton of skyway guys?

I interviewed on the 5th and got the "conditional hired" and waiting to hear back on a class date. From what they said, there was a CRJ class on the 18th but didnt know what or when the next one was. Hope to hear back this week on a class date... Either way have only good things to say on what I have seen so far..

Just trust me I know. :D Let's just say I am in a position in the training department.

sweet! I was just in the last class...

Wavit, I am still waiting for the other announcements you said were going to happen.

MKE is the most junior base and we are by no means over staffed. 68 lines, 71 pilots bidding? I guess we may have some guys coming here right after training, but that isn't even adequately staffed in my opinion. How is ORD

Koolaid, I am still waiting myself. Looks like they have gone the way of the Southwest deal. I know at one point we had 3 pretty solid growth plans that are on hold for now as our major partners figure things out. Next time I will not be so anxious to share those. I kind of put my foot in my mouth.

As for classes we are slowing down for a while. Almost all of the last class and from the way it looks all of this class should be headed to MKE. Historically this is how the company has operated. We slow things down when just staffed and open the flood gates all at once if new flying come along.

Same with FAT EMB FO's...57 in base, 62 targeted lines. Bring on the open time!!
