Yes….very interested in learning more here. I must say 6 months on any equipment is unheard of - to me. I guess I’ve been away longer than I realized!

67 OAK CA went to someone with less than 2 years on the property at the time of bid close I think...

Ok, that makes more sense. For someone on the outside though, I would give the time from day one to when they’re actually in upgrade class.

Guys and gals, the minimums are strictly due to market forces. When there is more pilots than pilot jobs, FedEx prefers applicants with astronaut ratings. And when the market shifts, they start by getting rid of certain tests, then with the 4 year degree, and eventually with the PIC time requirement. We are not there yet for the last. But if/when the it becomes necessary, they will lower that requirement. Otherwise the freight doesn’t move. And they’ll defiantly lower hiring minimums before letting too much freight stay idle.
It’s not personal, it’s business.

I said it before and I’ll say it again: we will hire wet ATP certs to move freight if we have to.
PIC time is valuable experience, but there is nothing wrong with hiring those without it either. It happens all the time, safely I may add, in this industry. It’s a matter of when they do it, not if.

Do any of you have an idea of upcoming class dates? From what I understand, the official CJO goes out about a month before the class date with the bids. I’m just posting as I’m wondering upcoming classes and if the training machine is still on track. Thanks in advance.

Just don’t want to count my hens before they hatch kind of mentality, ya know. I’d love more info on this “signal” group.
