C5 training is +10 years behind XJT at LEAST.

Its not that far..... a former Xjet ground instructor who jumped ship to C5 stole a ton of the training materials from Xjet.

Yes and Expressjet has operated them for 20+ years.
What is your point?

Junior FO likes a bit of Commutair bashing. This is from him in March 18
Stay tune, more to come.
This whole "XJT is going out of business" is getting really ridiculous. They are not going anywhere and will be a big player in United's domestic expansion. They continue to cover CommutAir (EWR) and MESA (IAH) block hours each month. They saw a huge increase in block hours from United in March and for next month. They are also opening TYS sometime this quarter.

It really wouldn't be a "merger", more like XJT would acquire their ERJ-145s and flying back.

Hyperbole, much? Perhaps being the launch customer and purchasing almost 300 of the things 34 years ago helped provide the resources necessary to make a world class training department. How many years has CommutAir operated the type? 4? It is also possible that playing 'my regional is better than your regional' is a really stupid game. Buttholes, opinions and regionals all have some things in common.

Doesn’t matter now, anyways. C5 is the Highlander.

That was pre-covid. What's your point? And exactly, it doesn't matter anymore.
