I just moved to the 757 program shortly after the site had been transfered. Right now I want to take my captains test, but there are no tests availible to take. Luke or someone in management please check into this one?

Thanks I appreciate all the hard work you guys put in. Also the fact I get to fly with the BEST _____ VA ever!!!

Josh,

There is a glitche associated with the transfer of data to DVA2006. The system thinks you were hired into B757 on Sept. 14, 2005, when you were initially hired back in 2004 into the program. Since the Sept. 14th you flew one flight in the B757/B767 aircraft, which is insufficient to be eligible to take the Capt. B757 exam.

We will have to figure out a way around this. Please be patient until we get this one figured out.

I don't see there being a data issue at all. Are there other flights flown in the 757/767 whilst you were a 757/767 FO or Captain?

Cheers!

I looked after 9/14/05 and counted my flights. I've only done one flight. Is there a way to keep track of instead of having to personally count the flights I've done before I take the test? I know that it is ten, I almost forgot about that. But as DVA1049 is concerned can I have that callsign back?

Luke, I'm having the same problem. Already have 11 flights, all of them on the 767, but went to take the Captain test and is not available. Can you look into it?.

Thanks in advance.

Actually Luis, if you go by the date your rank changed to First Officer in the B767, which is 9/25, you have had 8 flights since then. If you count the 25th, it would be 9 flights. However, there is no way for me to know if the flight on the 25th was before or after the status change.

I'm just pointing this out because it doesn't look like a system problem.

I am going to add a subtle change to your logbook to track flights that count towards promotion. I'll see if I can add it for Build 45. I'll also add something to the Pilot Center.

Cheers!

George, I got your e-mail and I understand the confusion about when it starts to count the flights. Anyway, I flew
two more flights today and that makes the ten flights for the promotion. I checked the testing center and still there
is no option for the 767 Captain test. Take your time and check what is the problem, no rush. The left seat can
wait. Thanks.

Luis,

You are eligible to take the B767 Capt. exam. The reason an exam isn't presented to you is the Captain 767 exam has not been created. The B767 progam is the result of a split up of the combined 757/767. The exams for 767 haven't been structured, yet. Sorry.

Allow us to follow-up with the Chief Pilot B767 to determine when they will be created.
