So, if I have taken the online test in late October and scored REALLY well, but have yet to hear anything, am I still ok and should consider the Holiday season as the discriminator for the silence? Thanks!

QOTD! 12k+ hours TT and 7k+ jet PIC and I'd have to think long and hard about this stuff. It isn't like the good old days when we had charts and plotters out determining this kind of thing. Now we inout numbers and wait for Aerodata to comeback with a go/no-go, flap setting, and a trim setting and call it a day! LOL

yeah that won't happen if you get unlucky enough to get stuck with the 76

you'll actually have to remember how to be a pilot again!

I'm in the same boat. Took the test a few days after getting the invite, got a 92 and then crickets. Hope to get a call sometime, maybe after the new year. I hear theres a backlog of newhires.

Anybody else out here keep getting PM's from a regional FO thinking of " throwing his hat in the ring" and looking for advice? I replied to the first message but have since gotten 5 more exact messages from him.... Anyone else?

The -300s do. -200s don't.

It's all aerodata. Some of it comes through ACARS, some doesn't.

I still owe you about a case of beer, CaptainV
