Default I'm done!

If you look near the bottom of the page where it says:

"Most junior captain hired: Nov 2006 (B1900D/MKE)"

It's talking about me!

Took my FAA ride on Monday and got extended yesterday to finish my minimum 20 hours and got my new wings!

Good deal!

I've got a friend that just got hired this past week at Skyway for an Aug. 27th class. Tryin' to do a little research for him...do you know if that is going to be a DoJet or Beech class?

BTW, how the heck does APC know when airlines upgrade FOs to Captains that quick?

I think it's going to be the Doh Jet. At least...that was the latest update for training. I have a feeling there will be more Beech classes down the road, but right now we're staffed well and the jet is finally catching up.

I think someone with inside info gives APC the updates. With only 200 pilots, most FOs with enough seniority must know who's getting what for upgrades and when they're hired. The class lists are posted on a bulletin board and a quick reference to the seniority list nearby makes the update easy. JC isn't the only place where everybody has their ears to the wall!

Thanks for the congrats everybody!
