The groups are done by last name, so if you're in A-F range, you'll be out early, if you're in the S-Z range, you'll be out later....

Do you guys have your OE schedule yet?
You can have them. They still suck!

Nope. Asked for the month off to take care of some family issues. Was given it with no questions asked.

Wasn't done by last name in ANC interview group in late April. I was done by 1330 with last name starting with "S". They had the entire schedule on the table though, so you can look first thing in the morning and know if you are staying later or leaving early and then make flight/hotel changes if needed. YMMV.

I stand corrected, sorry for the misinformation. When I interviewed in MIA, that's how they did it.

Interview tips:

Wear pants.

Just as importantly, leaving the impression that the interview board could spend 17 days attached at the hip and feel comfortable sleeping in the back for 6 hours with you and another pilot just off of OE in front.

Pretty much our job in a nutshell.

Being able to intelligently articulate your present job is great as well.

Good luck.

I'm not sure I understand why you're telling people to wear pants? Please don't tell me someone showed up in cargo shorts. ***?

Oceancrosser is right, apparently. I've had a good friend recommending me for years, finally got the test a few weeks ago with most of the interviewees here, got a 92, have gotten no call.

Probably involves my lack of 121 time, and the checkride failure and speeding ticket I had to divulge on my NHPS.

7500 total
2500 TPIC
a good deal of international and oceanic experience.


Congrats to all those in the process... good luck next week guys and gals!

I've never divulged tickets that don't involve intoxication,.... I never even kept track of them..

I stayed 53 days in Doral for training, in what was the Hampton Inn, I think it's changed hands.
