261ND is right, scheduling called me for OE, but I think I had a 2 or 3 day heads up on them just from watching Crew Web. Thanks a ton for the direct link XJCaptain, that just saved me an hour of my life... LOL

Rager, I finished my OE last Friday. All told it was about a 7 week wait. 12/3 class and 1/26 checkride. The first of our class is just finishing their fed rides now. I'm back to waiting to get mine scheduled.

Taken the time off to go see some old friends around the country and just hang out with the family.

yeah i figured as much.... but i plan on doing just that...some traveling, a little R&R, and keepin my eye on CrewTrack daily. And thanks to XJCaptain for putting up the link, it was a big help!!

This is a general question for everyone. I start April 7th on the 900. I am looking to get based in DTW. If I dont get it the first day of class, is it likely I'll get it before I get out of the sim? Are things moving that fast?

DTW is staffed to 52 on the -900 FO list right now. Based on aircraft numbers, we will probably need 85-95 FO's there. I think your chances of getting DTW within 3 months are very good. The vacancy for the April 7th class has not been posted yet so it is difficult to say whether you can expect it coming in the door.

So some say the 200 is almost completely staffed I think it is actually not even half way. They keep increasing the proposed staffing of the 200 and well with only 9 aircraft on property and I think only 5 or 6 are flying I think the 200 is gonna need more pilots.

Yeah but not even half of the 200 FO's are online yet. And we just lost one or two to Saab upgrade. I think that we may be just about there.

their current new hires are getting class dates in may/june/later, so that should not be a prob, time wise though, bring your A game and impress them. I honestly dont know what the latest new hires have for times, but it never hurts to apply, and in a setting such as them coming to you at UND, thats some great 1 on 1 face time.
