I received the 20 August class, Tuesday start. Does that typically indicate narrow body fleet and primarily US flying, or does that decision get made later in the process? I've heard that the heavy classes usually start on Monday. I am good with any fleet and any base, just wondering what the process is.

It appears you will be in a light twin (75/76, A300) class. I don’t believe there are any Z slots remaining so other than Canada or Mexico you will probably be purely domestic. If on the 75/76 you may be able to bid over to Z in the next system bid. Possibly as early as this fall. Seat lock is 18 months, but applies only to type not domicile.

Probably better off humping it on domestic for a few bit periods before switching the Z so you have some buffer below you.

Somebody has to be the plug. Why not a bright eyed, bushy tailed newbie?

Yeah, getting the experience will be nice after not actively flying for a little bit!

Anyone else on here in the August class? Is there a WhatsApp group yet? If not, I can start one up. I know 2 others that are in the light twin class with me.
