175 vs Q400
I understand that there are a number of threads about this subject, but I was hoping for any updates/new information.
I will be interviewing in the next few weeks and if hired will be looking for a class date after the new year. Assuming a 2-month training footprint, that would put me hitting the line sometime in March/April.
- How quickly is the conversion from the Q to 175s happening, and any thoughts on flying time, reserve, etc with this timeline?
- How are the FO pools in both aircraft, and do you see there becoming an overage of FOs in the Q as more 175s come on line?
- Any rumors/information about additional base(s) for the 175?
I know it’s probably futile to try and predict what’s going to be happening at a regional 6 months out, but any insights/thoughts would be appreciated.
