I am starting class there Sept 11th. The deal with the new planes is that I am 14 month seat locked in the BE1900. At that point I upgrade to the Dash 8-200Q as PIC. Three weeks of GRD school in PLB followed by a week a Sim in LGA or MCO. The practice LDG's in ALB. Then a flight with the crew for the day plugged in up front, then IOE, then Released to the line. In total 5-8wks before I am flying the line. Everybody is really nice and friendly. There doing a lot of hiring and busy with the new planes coming. They are creating anew division for flight attentdants. Pretty crazy right now but, lots of growth.
