I heard recently that a former Delta pilot (like myself) was interviewed for 747 DEC in late May, was hired, and has already completed his training. I interviewed in late Apr for 777 DEC and haven't heard a word other than my medical cleared and the employment pass clearance was being done (whatever that means...) Sounds to me if you want to get on with SIA quick and cargo is ok, the 747 DEC is by far the way to go. Another DAL pilot that I just talked to interviewed last OCT ('04) and still hasn't heard anthing.
