I'm starting class in a few weeks and just looking through the home study files and trying to make a gameplan on the best way to attack this portion of training. Anybody that has gone through class recently care to share their thoughts with me here or a PM. I've been through a handful of initial classes both 121 and 91, but would like to have a heads up on what I need to have down before class and what can be put down till I get there. Thanks!!!
When are you starting class?

Don't just look at the flow as getting to American. Look at it as a QOL issue. You'll get hired, move up the FO list, Move up the Captain list. I was an FO here for 5 years, two of which was straight reserve. You'll have such a better QOL then I did while moving towards the FLOW. If American isn't what you want then you'll have the PIC time to apply to the carrier of your choice.

Enjoy the ride!! Piedmont is finally on the map again.

It sounds like theres a lot going for Piedmont. I am looking hard at applying with them. Any recommendations on material to study etc., things I can do to help prepare prior to the interview?

My background: USN pilot with 2300hrs in T-6/T-34/T-44 and P-3s. I'm currently on a non-flying tour and will have been for 3 years when April 1st rolls around (when I get out). I've seen on the Piedmont profile that they're preferring individuals to be in an active flying position, but is that a deal breaker in order to get an interview?

Get current and they'll interview you. Apparently we've hired quite a few mil pilots over the last few months
