Airline Preperation

I'm looking for info on what books/kits to buy, which sites are the best to look at, and where I should look to so prepared for my interview, that they'll hire me on the spot. If there’s another post out there about this please do slap me the link. Thanks.

Just get into a frasca or something similar for an hour or 2 so you can get used to flying the box again.

The only place I know of that lets you know right then and there is ExpressJet but it sounds like TSA is getting desperate and not making people wait.

don't know if it's the desperateness but there wasn't enough time to get a letter out if I or others were available for the early class....it's a rush to fill it.

I'd start with a Basic Grammer and Spelling Book. I think you will impress the interview staff more with correct word usage, spelling and punctuation.
