How long would it take to hold HKG?

Probably the first bid after you were hired. But that might be a year or more, and then would take a while to actually get trained/activated over there. Then again, it could have been offered to the new hire class but nobody bid it. They can't force you to an FDA, but your willingness to go there could hasten your actual hiring date, depending on the number of vacancies (if any) in the FDA.

Had Checked and Set do an application review. There is no column for Dual, so I asked about aircraft that I don't have much PIC or SIC time in mostly Dual (primarily the T-37 and T-1, but some DA-20 and PA-18 time also). I was told that pilotcredentials specifies putting dual under SIC. I like the old trust but verify motto, and couldn't find it written anywhere. It is only about 200 hrs, but would put me over the 5000TT mark. Can anyone direct me to where (if) it is written? If not, I'll just leave it out.

What did others do with T-1 dual? The type requires 2 pilots, so that one I think justifies SIC.

Got the invite on 1/22! Hoping to be in MEM on the 21st. Anyone else hear back re: that date?

I assume a new-hire is responsible for their own housing during training . . . are there any extended-stay hotels or furnished short-term apartments that have good deals for training?

Plenty of crashpads on the boards in the training building.

Some in the AOC behind the new "lockers", too.

Get a hotel for the first couple of days, you should be able to find a crashpad in less than a week.

I think there was also a crashpad thread.

If you know someone here, ask him to copy some info for you.

They just started a "FedEx Crashpads" group on Facebook.
