Still no interview date, and asking around, it seems that I might be in for a year+ wait for an academy date... I just hope I can make it that long on 24hrs a week at my current job.

My better half got picked up for Pensacola Tower, she had a class date and FOL in her hands within 6 months of initial contact. I rage with jealousy, regularly.

Also, possibly long distance relationship, FTL.
