Are they going to use the Frasca sim like before, or is that one of the variables?

The new UAL is buying 12,000 hats for the pilots. I'm guessing it won't be optional in the future.?

I Don't wear mine...

ALPA should have "turned on the hat switch" when Management came out with the "Hats Optional" .......the random hats on/hats off was to show unity.

Anyone heard of new hires off the street (non-UAL furlough) being called for the Dec 4 class?

No, have not heard. I think they have unfilled slots though.

They started re-interviewing the UA and CAL poolies last week, some 43 (out of about 76) that that responded to email's and letters. As of 10/25, there were 5 slots in the 13 Nov, 8 in 27 Nov, and I don't remember the rest (about 30 total through Dec).

It sounds like the UA poolies that didn't have firm class dates, unfortunately will have to start over. Sorry.

So what's the latest? Since the 'cutoff' for poolies to respond to the latest UAL offer was Oct. 31st, I'm guessing UAL now has a better idea of how many actual street hires (in addition to the returning poolies) will be needed to fill upcoming classes? I've heard that classes are filled through Feb. of 2013...has any one else heard the same? I'm guessing this means no interviews until early/mid next year?
