[Cordney Stewart]

I have been trying to get information on what to expect, but I have heard nothing. Anybody heard anything on when they will start pulling from the list, training process, etc?

Expect to hear nothing

Expect to hear nothing

That's unfortunate. Hopefully they pull staffing from the list every 30 days I guess.

So anybody hear anything this week? Need to fuel my hopium addiction

 

[Cordney Stewart]

This honestly a win win for me. I wanted to go to N90 to see if could work the traffic, but didn't want to be stuck there for the rest of my career if I certified. If they would have had a clause that after 10 years as CPC I could bid out, I would have went anyways. I have been trying to get to PHL for 4 years now

I can’t wait to get disappointed and never get picked up. Heard things ranging from only 20 people have applied, to no one is getting picked up until June

Reliable sources or just rumors?

Probably the latter, I can’t believe that only 20 people would have applied to this bid

At least 2 ppl at my facility applied last month, so I'm guessing there's definitely more than 20. Esp with the relocation pay.

Anybody got any updates?

What is the point in creating a year long listing if your going to wait until it closes to make selections? I expected it to function more closely in line with the N90 listing.

they’re probably waiting til they have a more solid timeline on when the EWR move will happen

Has the FAA ever done anything on time?

Has the FAA ever done anything on time?

Yup. When they make an error and over pay you, they get that money back ASAP!!

Grounded Richard Branson’s fake spaceship even though they let the Boeing self certify the MAX and 787. Great having the same standards across the whole of your agency.
