Last 3 or 4 did not have choices, but the instructors thought our class was "weird" in selection.

Doesn't look abnormal to me. Not surprising that the 756 went to the last few; it limits the opportunities to move to a different domicile.

So now you guys can put in standing vacancy bids. No rush; it will probably be another couple of months before the next vacancy bid.

What was the age range from Sr to Jr in the class?

Congrats on all that just got started. I should be coming in for a class mid to late May hopefully.

Question: Any projections if there will any delays between Indoc and specific AC Ground school or are the training schedules running back to back. Any trends you have heard on training schedules?

Great question, and very helpful to those of us starting up in May if you all don't mind answering.

Thank you for the class breakdown of equip/domicile award. Any reasons or rumors why SFO has not been in the mix in the last couple of classes?

They are still activating pilots from the past vacancy bids. They are keeping the staffing even across the board with CAs/FOs. As 1 CA comes in 1 FO comes in, and most of the SFO 737 CAs are new upgrades that require full training so the ramp up has been slow. Once they run out of FOs to activate then the new hires will get the slots. I have no idea when that will be :D.

There can only be new hire positions to bid if there were unfilled vacancies offered to those already here. So if any request for SFO was filled, then no new hires will be offered SFO.

Bump.
I've heard 757 has been backed up. What about all the 737 new hires, did you have a break after Indoc?
