Back on topic. Was there a class Monday?

I’m in a class beginning the 24th

Ugh. The possibility of getting 175 DFW right out of training is making me seriously reconsider Envoy. I had pretty much narrowed it down to Republic and Endeavor until this development.
I have an interview offer, I just need to set it up. How are reserve times right now on the 175? Is it fairly easy to build time on this fleet, with or without a line? It seems like some of the reserve pilots aren't being utilized much on other fleets. Obviously, no way of knowing 100% what domicile I would get out of training, but I'm looking at a late October/early November class date. Is there any reason at this point to think this sudden shift to 175 classes would change in that time frame? From what I understand, it's the new aircraft deliveries that are driving this, and those are likely to continue for a while, yes? Furthermore, I gather that 145 is full of FOs, and they're not doing much, if any, hiring into the CR7. Like I said, I know nothing can be known 100%, I'm just trying to understand the driving forces and make the most educated decision I can. I'm somewhat stuck between "chancing" this option and going to Republic and waiting for the IAH base, which might take 6-9 months. Any words of wisdom? |

Don’t go to a airline for a airframe. That should be last on your list of needs.

Lol. Looks like someone is setting up to get Envoyed. I can almost guarantee that your class date won't offer enough 175 slots for you to get it. Murphy told me.
It's one of those "I want to believe" type things! Thanks for the little dose of reality. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk |

That's almost exactly why I'm probably not going to do it. I couldn't have put it better myself.

DEC Seat lock?
Is a DEC seat locked into his/her assigned aircraft and if so for how long?
