I had a copy of all my flight records just in case but they really didn't look past my form 5. (Interviewed on the 23/24 of May)

Be on the safe side and bring them!

Make sure the Florida License paper is completed with BLUE ink!!!

Congratulations!

Any news on a class date? Last week I heard we would probably be the second group in July, or first of August. I'm travelling a lot and afraid I might miss the call.

BB,

When you talk about the hearing exam, is it like the usual military or is it harder? I have a little loss that I am worried about.

Thanks.

BTW I would bring everything that you have in your jacket for the interview. They may or may not look at it, but it is better to be over prepared.

ACL65,

Do you know if the new hire 76 guys out of ATL will likely be sitting reserve for a long time (6 months or more) or is it likely that they will be able to hold lines rather quickly...

767 guys will be on reserve for a while. I'm bidding 397 out of 397.. haha.

I would have been holding a line this month on NYC Maddog if I didn't get brought into training.

The reserve lines arent that bad...every one of them has at least one weekend off.

I just used an alligator clip for the forms that they requested and had them in a folder ready to go, then a larger clip for the flight history over the last several years that they didn't look at.

Happy to be here

Yes, reserve on the 76 will be some time. I would guess at least a year if not more. With all of the hiring that is going on, there will be a lot of movement. 88 ATL FO will probably hold a line in less than 6 months after being converted to ATL.

BB,
For me, I got the call with a class date almost month to the day from the interview. The class date was about 3 weeks out from the phone call. I think a lot of the timing is based on how quickly you background check, driving record, and FAA PRIA records comes back. Hope this helps.
