Interesting they are having a Nov and Dec class, yet no Oct class 🤔 (well, class of 1). Obviously never try to understand Brown’s methods, pause for a month to “catch up”?

3 of those pilots can do the do work of 15 in the future so realistically they hired 16😄😄

Ya know, it occurred to me that PERHAPS they basically canceled the October class to get instructors and managers through IECQ.

Or, not.

Glad the newbies are coming...now what's the rumint on when the 747 bid is coming out?

Do you think this will increase the need for new hire staffing of ANC?

I was kidding about those numbers, no clue 😬. But, pretty sure some ANC folks who can hold SDF will bid it and some back fill will occur. Remember NO ONE is seat locked for this bid.

I was told new hire in ANC is way behind, but until bid closes it won't pick back up. Hope that is wrong....I live up here :-)

Bring a car from Cali?? You can’t be serious?

Do you know which fleet you’ll end up on? 747? Then it’s possible you’ll train in SDF ..or ANC ..or MIA. It could also be an ANC/SDF, ANC/MIA or SDF/MIA combination.
You won’t know until you show up.

I mention this because not too long ago one of our newhires thought he’d do all, or most of his training in SDF and he planned accordingly. He ended up doing ALL of his training in ANC and MIA, then went back to ANC for -8 differences training. So the car he brought in sat in the SDF employee parking lot for the entire time. As always, YMMV.

Welcome onboard!!
