I understand a GS started yesterday, I think there will be another one in may. If you're in the pool keep that phone close! Though don't get discouraged it took them 10 months to call me.

Cheers

Looks like 6 310 spots and 1 737. Don't know if they are double qualified spots or not, but probably.

Any news on a possible May groundschool? Latest job add on TS website said that selected candidates would have to be ready to start as soon as May. Have any calls gone out since the most recent gs? How many candidates in the hiring pool?

I heard the same 2 weeks ago , they would interview again and one of my friend got an email for the phone interview and no feedback since then. He is wondering why the RH is not replying to him . Meanwhile , I should have had some feedback for interview and same thing , its quiet. Anyone knows what is the situation with AT ?

Some of the people may be out-of-office, so you might get one of those auto replies. Just be patient.

Those that are straight narrow body are so few there are chances that the narrow body pay scale may be eliminated during the next contract which is due this spring.
Assuming there's a new contract in play now, is there any new payscale information that somebody would care to share?

No new contract yet. Still negotiating. New posting for "seasonal" pilots, whatever that means.

Same for me please...

Has anyone who applied to the recent seasonal pilots posting been called? I know it the ad hasn't been up for very long.

Cheers
