Hard to say when things will get in motion again. All we know is that training has stopped for the time being.

That's because training is working on a new syllabus for fleet type... At least that's the rumor I've heard about dozen times...

That's not a rumor, that's a fact Jack

By the way, are there any junior guys out there who were the last in the training class before the music stopped? I'd love to hear what kind of schedules you're holding. If it's reserves, are you getting many hours or is it still not much to pass around with the excess staffing? If I were in your shoes, taking the voluntary time off that my friend told me was offered sounds pretty good if you don't need the money

Redux:
Most for USAir. Some for PHX, most at a yet to be announced east base. 80+\-. A few for UA and a few for DAL. Most are replacements for 200's. Only ~15 are growth. One on property this summer then 3 a month in January.

At least that's what the van driver said he heard from a bunch of flight attendants.

I talked with one of the guys from the very last training class; he's on reserve and not flying much. Probably flying 15 hours a month.

Man that "van driver" is spot on!

I know that Skywest people were at Flight safety not too long ago checking the training program for the 170
