I think the wait for standz class is approx. 3-4 months right now. I would probably add 10 to 20% to the $55K. The quote is if you never unsat a lesson, never bust a stagecheck etc. If you fly nuts-on all the time I am guessing you'll be out with $55-60K. I personally think I'll be closer to...

I just passed my FAA Multi ride yesterday at DCA and I am pretty pleased about that. I will start CFI in a couple of weeks and until then I can go home and see my wife for a few days. (which makes me even more happy) Sorry to make a post that just says hooray for me, but I had to tell...

chairfly, chairfly, chairfly quick, before it gets too hot out there, sit in one of those cockpits on the ramp and go over procedures. have another student that is approx where you are in training act as atc and have them vector you around and stuff. it isn't the real thing, but it helps a...

My guess is they would want the latter. I think they prefer to hire the fresh graduates...

I am pretty sure you don't instruct multi until you are almost done. Once you get to about 750 hours dual given you get to instruct approx. 50 more in multi and then get your interview with Comair airlines. I haven't really asked around, but as far as I know almost all of the instructors at...

I did them on my Commercial stagecheck today (Comair, not FAA) and i selected my points about 15 sec. apart and entered as previously stated. After rolling out of my first turn I saw that my second point was way too close, so I just told the stagecheck guy that I was going to use a point a...

Hmmm, I don't really like mushrooms so much, but...... Actually it wasn't that bad last time I went and it is a buffet, so as a student you can stuff yourself and just eat once that day... saving those $$$ you know.

All you need at CiCi's is your student ID actually. It also gets you the student discount at the Movie Theatre.

Personally I like the new unis. They really make the place look sharp and I didn't have to stress over what to wear to my stagecheck today. lol. The new student epaulettes have light blue stripes instead of the silver bars that the old instructor uniforms had. Only the flight portion of my...

Get the degree first. Fly when you can on the weekends and stuff, but that degree will make you much more attractive to a regional, and is pretty much a requirement for the majors. Good luck!

that's the latest, that students will be in blue (the old instructor uniform color) and the instructors will be black and white with gold bars. it is to start by the end of february i think. the name is changing to delta connection academy also, at least that is the rumor. starting on feb...

Just wondering if any other current students/instructors at Comair had an opinion on the new policy of having the students wear uniforms. I don't mind the idea, it will make the campus look sharp and will get me used to wearing a uniform for the rest of my career once i become an...

As a student at Comair here's my observations about the aircraft. The planes are well maintained for what they are, which is old. They do go down now and then, but all planes do. I have been here since Sept. and probably had only three or four cancelations due to something being broken...

Re: Don\'t want to go public because CAA admin is reading the board? From what i have heard most (many?) of the CFI's that don't get on with Comair are getting picked up by one of the other regionals. I heard in the October class, of the seven CFI's that interviewed with Comair, three were...

You are right about 33. I am 33 now and just mailed my applicaiton to FLA today. I will be 34 by the time I start though...

Dude, we are all crazy.

Good luck!

Visceral, I will be working for anywhere from two weeks up to the end of July. I told my boss to let me know how long he wanted me. My wife is a teacher and has a good portion of the summer off, so around the first of August we'll head out on a month-long road trip from Washington (state) to...

FreeWillie, I just quit my job today and I will be heading to Comair soon. When are you heading down there? I am hoping to start in Sept. You also mentioned loans. I got approval for a KeyBank Alternative loan in about 60 seconds on the website. Crazy how much money they will loan someone...

I just quit my job. I will be attending Comair in the fall. I am sort of freaking out. I am very excited but quite nervous about the whole thing too. I just had to tell somebody.

Congrats to you both! Kristie, you will love being a "Taylor". Having been one all my life, trust me, its a good thing. My wife likes it too. -Phil Taylor
