Must be on the higher side. They're starting upgrade classes again (after suspending them because we were so short FOs).

We're all having to bid more time - I cannot stress how short we are people.

1140TT/285ME, first applied a month and a half ago, and haven't heard a peep. Any suggestions, DirectTo?

Do you have an internal rec? That would help immensely.

Other than that, I'm not sure as you're probably the ideal candidate.

Thanks for the reply, freeze.

Unfortunately no, I don't have an internal rec.

Just keep the application updated and be patient. When did you send in your app? Do you have excessive failures or speeding tickets?

Rumor has it that classes of 12 will be running every month through June or July. Not sure how true that is, it's just what I've heard.

Headset

Hey All,

I am in the Feb. 13th Class Date and I thinking about a new headset. What headset works best or is the most popular with the Qs?

Thanks!

You'll see everything on the line. You'll want a clamp type in the 200s; the 300s are much, much quieter.

Unless you've got an AvCom now, I'd save your money and stick with what you got - you'll need it on the line.

Quick question for you guys, do think I would be competitive at 550 TT / 105 ME? Not sure if it matters with Commutair but I also have close to 2000 hrs part 121 time as an FE. My Inst instructor went there a few years ago and said he liked it (He's with NetJets now). Thanks in advance for your opinions.
