Not too much to report but here's a couple things:

6 new-hires are in the October class. We have quite a few others in the pipeline who don't meet the ATP minimum hours yet.

No upgrades in November or December because of the holidays and to allow a couple months to fill in the FO side. Upgrades expected to start in January again.

Two planes in RFD, IL for C-checks. One went out about 2.5 weeks ago and is almost finished. One just went yesterday. We are now contracting out our C-checks to get them done faster. From what I understand the company does/did Republic's Q400's and the head of the company is a former Horizon guy. I expect we'll see our maintenance delays start dropping once we get a few planes rotated out from here.

That's about all the new stuff. Otherwise, we just keep trucking along.
