$40 million profit. That's pretty good. I only listened to part of the earnings call.

Ya but 17 700's being returned to the leasor is a kick in the pants..

I'll see you there!

Issue is that my recruiter seems to think it would be tight to do the CTP that close before class but my buddy has a different recruiter that's telling him there would be no issue. Not sure who to believe. Worst case scenario I don't get the written done and take the October CRJ class instead and have a small vacation.

Any tips on ground school ? I Here at other places it's easier to get through Indoc systems etc due to them having open book exams and stuff like that .

It's starting to happen at more and more airports around the country.

Study and put for a good effort, you'll be fine and not need an open book.

For as much as TSA complains about being understaffed they seem to have no problem finding time to harass flight crews (who are probably the least likely people to try to sneak weapons through).

Also it's good to note that in places like msp there's so much turnover that as an FO there's usually a fair amount of open vacation slots, as long as it's not a holiday or something highly desirable, you can request a vacation day two months out as long as you have vacation hours to burn. But again, that wouldn't be until your anniversary date :(

During your first 12 months with the company, you have 5 "Gold Days" you can use for vacation. But yes, you have to be in your domicile already, put the request in 2 months in advance, and hope noone else in your airplane+seat already has a Gold Day that day.

I guarantee the company is going to base the 175 in SLC and when they do these people will get their bennies and put down the fleet drum.
