Does TSA still publish electronic (PDF) versions of the GOM/SOP/etc? If so, would it be possible for someone to send along copies sans any SSI pages?

Not IAD based, but will be displaced there soon. I hear there are very few crashpads in IAD area...there might be some opening once RIC closes, but no word yet.

The PDF they sent me say IAD and RIC based pilots will have reservations at the Hilton.

The rest of us will be able to sleep on the STL terminal floor for the low low price of our dignity. Good for you guys though!

As in previously based at IAD or RIC? I was IAD-based for all of a week before getting furloughed.

Terminal floor?! Forget that, nothing finer than some terminal benches dragged together à la The Terminal

Has anyone gotten any info on how much training will be given? I keep hearing rumors from a couple of days to a month but nothing for sure..

I called to update my address and found out my phone number the company had was wrong. Really odd since they called that number to F me in the beginning but now they had it one number off.. Either way you might want to call for yourself and see what’s up

Ok so they've only gotten about 40 out 130 to accept.

And they're still waiting for the 7 days to expire on all notices per the cba to make sure it's still only 40.

But........ they've started to give out class dates to some, even as late as Jan24.

Does this make much sense?
