Not really concerned about the training, have plenty of time to prepare. (Just asking to see if the naysayers are qualified or just repeating urban legends)

How are the base assignments working? Hoping to get EWN/CHO/ROA, in that order.

Sucky routes, schedules.. example? I see almost 7hr days & 16 duty hour schedules on flightAware, that is not so bad. Any chance to pick-up extra flying?

The jets are not expected on property for another year. What is the expectation of that flying getting assigned? Lifers will probably choose to keep their Dash8 bases/lines, less senior captains might want to move to a hub, but that takes them out of 'flow' eligibility.. Looks to me that JetFOs will be mid-newer hires, not the guys ready to upgrade anyway.

Any thoughts?
