How is the training being non AQP? I understand that only the E-175 is AQP for the initial for the time being. I hear its simplified a little bit more by going through an AQP training program as compared to envoy,

Not a big deal being non AQP but I think the other 2 aircraft are in the process of becoming AQP training. I know the CRJ was non AQP initial and AQP recurrent when I was on it.

Either way it is a non issue as long as you study. Know the Lims, memory items, and what all all the buttons do on the overhead and various other panels. If you can do that the check should be a non issue.

Its all envoy. Training is same place, same thing basically, just different format for the checkrides and some other small things. You honestly won't know the difference being a new hire. Study and you will be fine, like the thousands that have done it before you.

Awesome. I hope it happens. That alone should help get new hires through the door I think.

Or they live there, like several guys in my class. We have a couple new hires and several of the transitioning captains in my class who are in SoFla. They'd love MIA to become reality. So would lots of others who were displaced out of there but still live there. It's nice to have options.

20 E-175's only generates 100 F/O positions. If only new-hires get them like the present scheme, that doesn't do much for more senior locals, let alone those who aren't local and would like to bid it. If Envoy will allow present non E-175 pilots to bid them, then it doesn't do any good for new-hires. If some present new-hire DFW E-175 pilots can transition then more spots open up in DFW, but all in all once 100 slots are filled, the same old staffing attraction problem returns. At any rate, it won't solve attrition as I don't see anyone turning down a legacy or LCC just because they got the E-175.

If true, it will be interesting to see how this plays out.
