Cold is an understatement. Bring NASA certified Arctic gear. You will see your breath, frost will form on your glasses and occasionally you will hear a "thump" as one of your less insulated class mates succumbs to the effects of hypothermia - "one less number above me" - you think.

Yeah Thanks so much for the info about the December class. It makes me feel a little better. I am going down to the Regional jet course tomorrow which they are paying for and was afraid that I would take the course and then they would send out a email saying, "Oh by the way we arent hiring anymore, good luck" I was told I was on track for the January 2nd class. Im keeping my fingers crossed.

Yeah go for it. No one really knows what's happening. Hopefully you can get in the door before the music stops lol. I think we all feel a little dazed and confused. Sure looks like AMR has been planning this out for a while and I'm sure they have a plan for Eagle, but they're not letting the cat out of the bag yet.

Well I guess the cats out of the bag now. :-( I had travel today HPN-ORD-JAX. I am sitting In Chicago waiting for a flight back to White Plains. In the middle of my travel to my RJ course I got a call from eagle to turn around because all hiring is on a freeze for now and the RJ course is canceled. I am totally bummed right now. I studied like crazy I took a whole week off from work payed for a rental and hotel in JAX. Now everything is suddenly flipped on its head. Good luck to everyone. Hopefully this is very temporary.

The review board was supposed to go over my papers today. I haven't heard from them yet. That's not a good sign either. $hit...

Shouldn't Eagle actually be hiring like crazy since with AA in bankruptcy, they will be shedding flying to the regionals like crazy. Or is Eagle going to be frozen out of the growth of the regionals at AA in favor of other lower cost regionals?
