They seem to be running 1 class of around 30 CRJ new hires and 1 class of approx. 10 Brasilia new hires every month. You will be assigned an aircraft when they give you the initial offer for the job (at least that's how it was for me). I was in the August 29th CRJ class, and out of the 28 guys in our class, 14 guys got ORD, 10 got MSP, and 4 got COS. For the Brasilia guys, 4 got PSP, 2 LAX, 2 PDX, and 1 FAT. It doesn't appear that the people in the Sept. 26th have been awarded their bases yet. We were awarded our bases halfway through sim training.
