You will get it in PHL. That said, having the LA qual has nothing to do with you getting awarded DFW “I”. They give you that if you can hold it. So the best scenario is actually to not have the qual and get DFW “I” and fall through the cracks, where they can’t use you for as many trips. This would involve getting LGA “D” to start with and wouldn’t be worth it. But if you could get DFW D that’d be the best way to start.

Not a problem. And I guess I did ask incorrectly in my first post. I was specifically wanting the LT qual. So is that NOT going to happen out of PHL? Because that will affect what I want to bid.

There is no guarantee that you will get it in PHL. It depends on the trips assigned to you for IOE by flight standards. Some in my class got it, I did not.

I promise you you won’t want the LT qual after being abused on reserve, being in the bottom bucket because you have the most hours but still getting called ahead of 20 others because you’re the only one that can dhd to JFK, fly to BOG, fly the redeye back the next night to JFK and dhd back to base. Be careful what you wish for. It’ll come with time.
