Just have to get a 70 or better.

"It is their sincere hope that they wil be able to offer me a class date in the second half of the year, but they do want to prepare me for a longer 'swim' than any of us planned for." Good news but bad news! Oh well let the drown proofing continue for now! Off to WalMart greetings until they call!!

Just woke up to the email this morning. Basically says the same thing as this, but didn't say anything about no classes after March. Did yours say that?

We were doing so good too. Nearly one page without the back and forth.

It didn't say it directly but it said "since it is unlikely you will be offered a class date within the next 30 days..." and "It is my sincere hope that we will be able to offer you a class date in the second half of the year...". From that, I deduced (maybe improperly) that currently there are no classes scheduled after March?? Whenever they figure it out they will give us a call is what I got from my email. Maybe they are different emails (mine was from an E190 Pilot on the Recruitment Team)...not sure but nonetheless I'm happy with some positive dialogue finally!

There are so many rumors about the exact number of new hires for 2012. Even management isn't sure, just spoke to the system chief and he said 70-140. Also, 170 in the pool. Take it for what its worth.
