Enroute Class pass rate

The list I heard was (may not be in right order)

ZOA
ZOA
ZMP
ZMP
ZBW
ZKC

Anchorage as an alternate as well

Dang I just graduated from the class prior and went to ZAU. I’m from Minneapolis and requested if it was an option, I was told not a chance due to training backlogs and wouldn’t improve soon. That bites seeing ZMP right after I’m out.
Any grad from this class want to trade quick?!

Wondering how the academy is making out right now with all this Omicron stuff? Classes getting quarantined and stuff?

I get that but there haven’t been many classes talking about class rates recently wondering what the case may be.

I’m at the academy now, still business as usual with masks and social distancing. I’ve heard of some classes quarantining or some students or instructors testing positive but no clear major impact here.

It's definitely happened in the past between recently graduated AGs, but I wouldn't say it's something they "allow"

Doesn’t it just follow the same rules as NCEPT SWAP except it’s looked at dead last because of AG?

Our class was just put into quarantine. We're now attending virtual zoom and reviewing old lesson plans for the next two weeks.

It has seemed like since I replied to this on Monday that's been happening more and more.. What day of class were you on? We're crossing our fingers we don’t get any quarantines in our class.

I feel like it'll keep happening over the next week or two, the terminal class across the hall from us went into quarantine last week. We were going into day 18 before they told us to not come in, just about to head upstairs for nonradar. We'll see what the schedule looks like when we get back now, I know there were 2-3 other enroute classes that started closely behind us.

They've really ramped up the frequency of classes recently I think starting one every 4 days, I'm interested to see if this will change that at all. I agree, unfortunately, I think we'll keep seeing some more happen in the next few weeks before settling down. Just today they closed both radar labs to fully spray them and I've seen that a few times in other classrooms in the last week. I feel you're in a good spot at least just before nonradar where you can still cover academics pretty thoroughly until you go back, it should hopefully put you all in a better spot for NR Evals.

Are y’all still getting per diem and the time in OK is just extended?

Are the ZOA's a pretty consistent offer from class to class?

Yes, pay and per diem continues.

It honestly depends. When I went through, no one was getting Oakland bc of a training backlog there. It's all based on chance of what you'll be offered since no one actually knows the status of all the facilities. Except faa hq
