Also, any guys in training or recently going through training? Whats the average class size? My interview was me and another guy. Supposedly there were 10 invites for the date and only 2 of us showed. I'm interested to see what class sizes are. With that, for those in class now or have just recently gone through, how is it and how is the instruction and turnout?

They are working on the hats. Some people are getting STL out of training. But looking at the transfer list a lot of people are moving to STL. They are saying that reserve are short but captain upgrade class has a group of 4ish. So not a lot of movement yet.

Our class has 8, so I think they want to keep it around 10. When I interviewed in July there was two other guys as well, so that is typical. They run interviews Monday through Thursday so they can fill up quickly. So far so good for me, my first part 121 gig and I'm enjoying the training process. Some weird training practices but because we have a fsdo guy that is a little weird in the head.

My tip for you study the limitations and memory items. Know them! I meant it. I posted a link at the bottom to help you out. Also see if you can find erj systems on line. I think smartcockpit has free copies on their website. Just look the systems over, this will make your life so much easier.

I heard they were going to covert some of Compasses 170's to tankers to support air to air refueling.
