They are wasting time. But it's true, they are waiting on the USPS because people never bothered to respond. I mean in all likeliness they're not going to get more than what they have now. If you haven't responded by now or don't know that your company is recalling you're probably stuck somewhere in Antarctica.

My letter was dated 11/22, postmarked 12/1 and received on 12/8....when you're dealing with TSA and the USPS its a crapshoot.

Man, man, man.... you guys are complaining already and most are still a month away from first day of class.... LMAO

They are giving out classes. Most likely MS will call you and then email you the info/forms packet that needs to be filled out/make copies of your stuff and brought in that first day you go down to STL.

First, you'll do one day event (fly in the night before and they put all ex IAD and RIC guys up). Then, you go home and come back on Sunday for training. Hotel situation is based on your last domicile held.
Call NL if you have any questions, she'll be more than happy to talk/email. Then, email T-the travel lady, explain where you are coming from, what dates and your DOB.

As long as you were not based in STL when we all got the boot, they will fly and put you up.

Ok so apparently the classes for Jan are filled. They go down as far as Feb08 hires. But even for those that actually have a class it's not 100% for sure because there are still senior pilots that have NOT responded, they're still waiting on USPS. But it's very unlikely that they will so they are going ahead with notifications at least for the Jan folks.

For those that have already recieved their class date: Did they assign you a new base when they assigned you your date?

Does anyone have a list of mentors in STL? I think JB who did ground in his basement moved to Texas, did anyone take that over?

Well all you guys can forget about the recalls.... I just notified my current job that im leaving and if this recall is anything like the last, we should all be receiving our calls canceling the recall any minute now....

Way to go, ruining it for everybody. Nobody else quit your job until after you pass your checkride. Of course, even if you wait until then, we'll get released and Hulas will shut the airline down.

I'll see your resignation and I'll raise you, I just resigned AND notified my housing that I will be leaving (The same entity)


Explained what's going on and if anything happens I'm welcome back....as long as it's not too late (Mid-Feb or March) so that's good.

I'm in it neck deep, why stop now? What is the likelihood that 4 sims get the job done? I was told by a TSA-er on the way out to Southwest/Air Tran that Trans States Holdings is so short staffed that they need every warm body they can get. Gojet hired someone who had previously been declined. He said that now that everyone is hiring, there are many leaving and thinning the ranks of TSA in the process. Rehires are cheaper than new hires, and have a record of success... so it is likely in their best interest to get us through, though they have made worse and ridiculous choices before. Who sees a strike coming?
