two questions...

Would you suggest having a vehicle during indoc? i.e. will there be time to use it?

When do you find out when aircraft training will be?

I'm in the Jul 7th class.

37.5 years old.

I really want Houston as a hub b/c I live in the Panhandle of Florida so I want the 757/767 or the A320.

It's really not needed. If you want a car to get away for a while...you can call Bill @ airline auto rental. It's right there in the Holiday Inn...adjacent to the Doubletree.

You don't need a car during BI... During sims it would be nice but not a show stopper. You normally get schedule for sims on week 2.

You won't get 756 or 76T in IAH. Only available in EWR. A320 in IAH could be very doable.

I heard UAL is moving the 737's out of IAH and building up 320's and 756's.

True?

Even if I don't get IAH right away, I'm just looking for the best chance to eventually get there.

If you want IAH go A320....

Unfortunately the June 16th class drop only has 1 x A320 and if the July 7th class drop is similar, that will probably leave me with the 756 or 737. It doesn't help either that I'm only 37.5, so I'm guessing I'll be in the bottom half of the class to select.
