Okay, he interviewed with an airline, presumably for a pilot's job, but
hasn't started ground school yet?

I'd like to hear more about that.

There's more than one kind of ground school, Brien. This is not your basic
"Private Pilot Ground School", or some such. Each carrier is required to
operate their own ground school for new employees, to cover their approved
operations manual, plus company policies, procedures, etc., etc. Plus there
are periodic ground school requirements for crews, whether you stay in the
same aircraft for a while, or move to a different craft, or upgrade seats.
If you stay in professional aviation very long, you'll go through lots and
lots of ground schools.
