The 737 fleet will not train this summer, as they will be flying. The LUAL training departments will train all summer, which is why the new hires will go to the 767 and Airbus.

Thanks you! That is good news for us new hires, we saw 11 in the 6 May class...hoping at least 11 going foward which means 22 per month which is the best we have seen in a long time.

Do not think 73 schoolhouse will be shut down this summer. Over Holidays some instructors went out and flew extra but summer will still probably be normal throughput. They didn't just put another sim in to just sit idle.

Most recent update still had CV's name on the bottom... Any idea if he's gone? Leaving? Staying (hopefully)?

The last SSC update said that the training centers would operate at "low capacity" this summer as the instructors were going to be used to cover line flying.

Anyone have input to the "News Post"???

Anyone have input to the "News Post"??? I have a couple of nuggets (no breaking news or anything earth shattering).....still no word on how many New Hires may get called for the 5/20 class.

I will post an updated "Poolie News" tonight or Monday morning - I am giving everyone a chance to send in any info they would like to have included to this next post.

To those of you who have sent in - Thank you and your fellow poolies will thank you as well (even though you will remain anonymous).

Officially things will likely be quite until the next class calls on 21/22 April.
