Other than UPT, it was all in the Mighty Eagle (single-seat version)!

Currently living in ANC, but our family would like to get to SEA area at some point in the future. Kind of weighing wether we would be better off to just make the jump to SEA now and avoid having to get a place to stay during training, or if we would be better off bidding ANC and getting off reserve quicker.

When do you start class?

I was curious about this too as I can make it if they're going to be there other days but not if the 22nd will be the only opportunity, unfortunately.

They're going to be there all week according to an internal memo.

Sounds like the training department running at max capacity. I was told to expect December, possibly even early 2016.

Wow! That's a long wait. I wonder how many people Alaska is going to lose to other carriers waiting that long. I've heard it's already a problem.

Hopefully they move that date up.

We still have clients who interviewed in April/May awaiting class dates. Last we heard they were told around September for a class date. I know one client has taken a position with another carrier during the wait, but unsure about others.
