Thanks in advance
Yeah, it's three days of ground school, a couple days break in the middle, and then four sim sessions. One each day and then a checkride on the fifth day. As for the written exams, oral and checkride... I don't know. I've heard the oral and checkride will be on the same day. The guys in class today should know by the end of the day if there's a written...

Ah yes, the phantom FEB 08 new hires...

-I played a real fun game of telephone last night, you know the game from when you were a kid. Several guys in my class (Feb 08) said they got letters, after asking a few questions it turned into "well I didn't actually get mine but this other guy who is junior to me got his so I know mine is coming"...

-February 08 class, got mine...

-Feb 08. Last I knew, I was 20 from the bottom of the seniority list. I will defer...

-Ok so apparently the classes for Jan are filled. They go down as far as Feb08...

-That's pretty much what I've deduced as well and there are 2/08 new hires in the Jan 24th class...

-i heard a feb08 hire was in the jan 24 class...

I know two people a few Jr. to me who have received theirs in the 2/08 class. Are you saying you're going to defer your mandatory? Leaving TSA as a distant memory, eh? Where you at now?

Oh, I just thought it was funny that everyone was quoting FEB 08 class... Not sure if I'm coming back yet.
