And if the questions on the written come right out of the ATP test bank, because I am taking the ATP written test in a few days and if thats the case then it will be still fresh in my head. And second anybody have any insight on what are the likely classes to be held in Republic in month of September, assuming I pass the interview hopefully and most likely get a class date in September. I am preferring a LGA base as I will be relocating there in few months so Chathauqa and Shuttle America would be my primary choices for certificate options. Any feedback would be appreciated.
Just a little warning here....LGA on the Shuttle America side might not be safe. The general feeling is that Delta is going to begin using mainline 717s for the Delta Shuttle. Without that flying, RJET will most certainly re-evalutate it's need for and subsequently close the LGA base, displacing pilots to places like CMH and IND.
Regardless, are you willing to risk leaving your current job in order to accept a Shuttle America or Chautauqua class only to show up and learn that you've been mislead and now you're on the Q400 and about to be based in PIT?
If you're looking for the New York area, I'd highly recommend Expressjet EWR.
