Got your class date?

Add your timing when you submit, or use your private edit key to update only your class status later.

Wait estimates include only contributors who reported starting class and supplied approximate days. Recent CJO groups may look faster because longer waits are still ongoing. Waiting counts reflect the last reported status, not a live airline queue. Profiles without approximate days contribute to status counts but not interval estimates. No exact CJO or class date is requested. Monthly statistics need at least 5 eligible profiles.
